The Best Food and Wine Tours Around the World

Georgia might not immediately come to mind when you think of the world’s prime wine destinations, but it’s actually where the first known wine was produced in 6000BCE, when grape juice was buried in barrels and fermented over winter. On this nine-day adventure, you’ll watch a master craftsman demonstrate the Georgian winemaking process, and join a local family for home-baked bread and churchkhela – a traditional, sausage-shaped sweet made from nuts and thickened grape juice. The national dish, khachapuri (bread stuffed with cheese and baked with an egg) is also a must-try.
