Wine Regions
of Georgia

It would be all but impossible to find a region in Georgia that does not produce wine. While wine is produced in every corner of Georgia, most production is in eastern Georgia’s Kakheti region. Kakheti is the primary wine-producing region of Georgia and accounts for more than 70% of the country’s wine.

In central Georgia, Kartli is home to a number of historic wine producing properties and the region’s wines are widely appreciated and exported. In addition to favourable climatic conditions, Kartli benefits from its proximity to Tbilisi, the country’s most populated city.

Much of western Georgia faces challenging growing conditions, such as increased humidity as one nears the Black Sea, and the wineries tend to be smaller, artisanal family estates. Key western regions include Imereti, Racha, Lechkhumi, Samegrelo and Guria.
