city’super, Hong Kong-based retail chain and mega lifestyle specialty store, is set to host a ground-breaking promotional event featuring an exquisite selection of wines from Georgia, a country renowned for its ancient winemaking traditions spanning over 8,000 years and recognised as “the birthplace of wine”. This marks the first time Georgian wines will be showcased in city’super, offering wine enthusiasts a unique opportunity to explore premium brands and the celebrated Qvevri wines.

Qvevri wines, crafted in large clay vessels that have been used for centuries, are gaining international acclaim among wine lovers. These distinctive vessels, resembling large, egg-shaped amphorae, are usually buried underground, embedded in the floors of spacious wine cellars. The wines produced in Qvevri can be red, white, or amber — often referred to as orange or amber wines—which have garnered immense popularity among trend-conscious consumers.

This exclusive promotion features over 10 varieties of Qvevri wines, including a selection of amber wines that highlight the unique characteristics of Georgian winemaking. Among the standout offerings is the limited-production Akura from Pi Winery, with only 600 bottles available worldwide but offered at an exceptional price of just $270 in city’super. KSG Life, whose previous vintages were quickly sold out in Hong Kong, would be available for this promotion.

For lifestyle wine lovers seeking “natural wine” and “low intervention” options, there is also unfiltered wine from Teliani Valley and Gogishika, along with selections from Baia’s Wines, showcasing the purity and authenticity of Georgian terroir.

Additionally, the promotion celebrates the debut of new wineries in Hong Kong for the first time, including Pi and Baia (hailing from the rare Western Georgian region of Imereti), bringing fresh and innovative flavours and low-intervention wines to the city’super shelves.

• Promotion Duration: From 19 September – 15 October 2024

• Tasting: Every Friday to Sunday at all city’super Wine Cellars

• Special Pricing: Enjoy a bulk purchase discount on a minimum purchase of 3 bottles, with a maximum discount of 15% for 12 bottles.

Don’t miss this chance to experience the rich heritage of Georgian wines right in the heart of Hong Kong. The promotion is held concurrently in city’super E-Shop. Visit online.citysuper.com.hk for more.
