About
We are a winery focusing on exquisite wines from Imereti in Western Georgia. Our region’s unique wines have always been famous for their crispness and flavour, but their scarcity makes them real hidden gems; they have always been made in limited quantities, for the needs and enjoyment of the household.
Wine-makers in Imereti have for centuries been making wine from ancient, indigenous varieties of grape in underground clay amphorae called ch’uri (the local equivalent of Georgia’s increasingly world-famous kvevri), and this method gave their wines their unique combination of lightness, freshness and depth of flavour. We decided to revive this wonderful wine-making tradition using ancient varietals and to produce exquisite Imeretian wines for the benefit of wine lovers around the world.
Our vineyards are located in Western Georgia’s beautiful Imereti region, where we carefully harvest only the best grapes in order to produce wines that we feel are worthy of our region’s culture and history. Our wines associate Georgia’s 8,000-year-old history of wine-making with modern methods and technology, and both tradition and excellence are at the core of everything we do.
Awards & Recognition
We are very proud to present our award-winning Krakhuna wines that have been selected out of about 18000 wines from 60 countries to grant Silver and Bronze medals at the world's largest and most influential competition Decanter World Wine Awards.
Imereti
Imereti is, after Kakheti, Georgia’s second-largest wine producing region. Its climate is very favourable for viticulture, primarily thanks to the warmth and humidity of the Black Sea to the west and the shelter afforded by the Greater and Lesser Caucasus mountains to the north and south. In addition, most of Imereti (70%) is mountainous, giving the region a rich and diverse group of unique terroirs.
Western Georgia is home to around 100 indigenous varieties of grape from which high-quality red and white wines are produced. The traditional Imeretian (western) method of wine-making is slightly different from the more well-known Kakhetian (eastern) one: although both rely upon underground clay amphorae, the Imeretian method also calls for the addition of small amounts of pomace to the grape juice during fermentation.
Georgian cooking, with its wonderful ingredients and unique recipes, is now rapidly taking its rightful place among the recognized cuisines of the world—and within Georgia, Imereti is famous for a whole range of exquisite specialities. Imeretians are notorious gourmets and quite picky when it comes to food and wine, and this is perhaps why they have always made a wide range of different and often unique wines, each with its own story to tell. Nothing can accompany a traditional ‘supra’ (a Georgian feast) as well as a light, chilled Imeretian wine.
