Additional Information
I chose destinations that wouldn’t be physically exhausting due to extended car rides. Also, importance was given to select wineries that have a unique signature in wine-making technology and can provide compelling narratives about their wines and aesthetics. One winery, which resembles a castle, is situated at the boundary of a forest with a vineyard in front, offering a beautiful view for the season. In the case of a family winery in the village of Vardisubani, we will take a stroll through the village and come across a quaint church, enabling us to familiarize ourselves better with the local culture.

Very nice trip - I highly recommend the tour and our guide too.First time ,we tasted delicious and interesting wines .and apart the best wineries in a many point of view ,we visited in monasteries,museum in Tsinandali,where Georgian wine had been bottled first time,saw process of making unique 'qvevri'(clay wessel).Diana was knowledgeable and outgoing.in short we had to stay in a car during travelling approximately 5-6 hours and the tour was so reasonably planned that it absolutely was not tiring.the tour gave us many reason and desires to come back in Georgia again.
