Kakheti – Georgia and the Caucasus

You might not guess it, but Georgia is actually the oldest wine producing region on the planet. People have been growing grapes high above sea level here, in the shadow of the Caucasus Mountains, for around 8,000 years. Much of the process historically relied on underground fermentation, storage and ageing in traditional clay vessels called Kvevri. You’ll learn all about this ancient technique on day four of our Georgia trip, when you’ll head to Kakheti, where you’ll watch a master craftsmen who still used the old ways today. You’ll follow that with lunch and wine accompanied by a traditional toastmaster, while on day five you’ll visit another local winery, where you’ll sample some of the country’s finest wines which, in some cases, are made in limited quantities by very small-scale producers. Expect Rkatsiteli and Saperavi grape varieties to feature heavily.
