It's a full-bodied wine that showcases the ancient winemaking techniques of Georgia.
Teliani Valley
Georgian Soul in Every Sip
Deep in Georgia’s Kakheti region, Teliani Valley is a wine-celebration factory, literally. Their harvest, “Rtveli,” is a weeks-long mashup of music, feasting, grape-stomping, and laughter. Founded in 1997, they’ve since become a cultural hub for wine lovers and artists alike.
Bold reds, crisp whites, amber wines, each bottle a passport to Georgia’s 8,000-year wine legacy. They’ve even nailed gold medals, including “Best of Show Georgia Red”. They say their wines are created to bring people together, to share stories, tears and laughter - and we love that!
