The experience

The day starts with pickup from your Tbilisi hotel and a drive into Kakheti, Georgia's largest wine region. You'll visit three organic wineries chosen for their approach to winemaking: Gvardzelashvili Wine cellar, run by one of Georgia's respected organic winemakers; Vellino winery; and Okros Wines, a highly ranked producer. At each cellar, you taste the wines and learn directly from the makers how their organic practices shape what's in the glass.

Lunch is included during the tour, and the guide (fluent in English or Italian) walks you through the differences between the wineries and their organic methods. The route takes in views of the Gombori mountain range, the landscape that frames this wine country. You're not moving through a checklist of stops. The focus stays on understanding Georgian organic wine itself, with time to ask questions and taste deliberately at each place.

The full day is nine hours, covering 300 kilometers round-trip. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, along with bottled water, all taxes and fees. The tour is private, so the pace and the conversation stay with your group.
