Georgian Wines Have Finally Arrived

Georgian Wines Have Finally Arrived

By Christina Brandalise 

If you think about where in the world wine was first produced, you will most likely pinpoint (and thank) the Greeks or the Romans. However, a recent study of modern grapes showed that they all descended from a wild grape variety native to the Caucasus Mountains. Where are the Caucasus Mountains you ask? This lush green fertile region is located in Georgia, at the crossroad of Western Asia and Eastern Europe. And it is here that wine was “invented”, with not a grape crushing Roman in sight.

Introducing Georgian Wines, a selection of the very best Georgia has to offer from renowned producer, exporter and winner of several prestigious wine awards, Tbilvino. Brought to you by Tamada P/L, the only importers of Georgian wines into Australia, the Georgians have had over 8000 years of practice, with evidence of wine making dating back 6000BC. That’s a hell of a lot of wine making experience. Currently exported to over 30 countries word wide, I am surprised these fine wines haven’t made it to our shores sooner. Wine connoisseurs and wine lovers will appreciate the unique flavour and aroma derived from the native Georgian grapes.

 

A premium range is now available in Australia, comprising of 12 varieties online and at selected stores. With a sleek bottle and exotic looking label, these wines are a dinner party must, being both a crowd pleaser and conversation starter. Who wouldn’t want to try some wine from “where it all began?”.
