Kakheti, Georgia

Georgia, at the intersection of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, is one of the lesser-known wine countries – but it is also one of the oldest wine producers in the world, often referred to as the Cradle of Wine. The history of winemaking in the region dates back at least 8,000 years, and many wineries today still produce wine the traditional way, using enormous egg-shaped clay vessels known as “qvevri”, which are buried underground. Experience this ancient way of winemaking on our nine-day Georgia adventure, which includes a trip to a local winery followed by lunch with a local family featuring dishes such as home-baked bread and “churchkhela”, a sausage-shaped sweet made from nuts and thickened grape juice
