Qvevri Wine

Our Amber wine represents the world's oldest winemaking technique — an unbroken lineage of craftsmanship born in the heart of Georgia.

Fermented in massive clay vessels called Qvevri, buried deep within the earth, this wine absorbs the mineral soul of our terroir while developing its characteristic deep orange hue.

8,000 Years of Heritage

The World's Oldest Wine Tradition

Georgia is the cradle of winemaking. Nestled between the Greater and Lesser Caucasus mountains, its unique terroir and indigenous grape varieties have produced wines since the dawn of civilization.

Our wines are made from grape varieties that are uniquely Georgian: Saperavi, Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane, and Krakhuna. These varieties have been cultivated in these valleys for millennia and cannot be found anywhere else in the world.

6000 BC

Birth of Wine

Archaeological evidence places Georgia as the birthplace of wine, with the oldest known winemaking artifacts found in the South Caucasus.

700 BC

The Tamada

A bronze statue of a Tamada (toastmaster) from the 7th century BC was discovered in the city of Vani, testifying to Georgia's deep wine culture.

Today

Lanchava Collection

We carry forward this unbroken tradition, crafting wines from indigenous Georgian grape varieties that exist nowhere else on earth.

The Art of Tamada

Georgian Tradition

Discover Tamada

Want to be a great host? Be a Tamada. The Tamada is the toastmaster who guides people in giving and receiving kindness around the table, the heart of every Georgian feast (Supra).

We all hold the wonderful ability to be great storytellers. Wine is the best companion with whom you can communicate. It shares your ups and downs. Focus on drinking wine by making great conversations, around friends and family.

“Georgian wine must not be drunk by being quiet. You will discover how special it is only after having conversations with it.”
