Georgia is one of the oldest wine regions in the world. The valleys of the South Caucasus house the source of the world's first cultivated grapevines and neolithic wine production, from over 8,000 years ago. Due to the many millennia of wine in Georgian history, and its key economical role, the traditions of its viticulture are entwined and inseparable with the country's national identity.
Among the best-known regions of Georgia where wine is produced is Kakheti region.
Kakheti is located in south eastern part of Georgia. Great Caucasus mounts from north and Lesser Caucasus Mounts from South protect Kakheti's fertile valleys from extreme cold and extreme hot and we get a perfect climate for wine making.
