The best wines is the ones we drink with friends...
Ushguli
Ushguli is a community of four villages located at the head of the Enguri gorge in Svaneti, Georgia. Recognized as the Upper Svaneti UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ushguli is one of the highest continuously inhabited settlements in Europe. Compared to somewhat more developed towns like Mestia, Ushguli isn't in an accessible location, which has preserved many of the village's characteristics.
Ushguli is located at an altitude of 2,100 metres (6,900 ft) near the foot of Shkhara, one of the highest summits of the Greater Caucasus mountains. About 70 families (about 200 people) live in the area, enough to support a small school. The area is snow-covered for 6 months of the year, and often the road to Mestia is impassable.
Typical Svaneti defensive tower houses are found throughout the village. The Ushguli Chapel located on a hilltop near the village dates back to the 12th century.
Constituent villages of Ushguli
Zhibiani some 2,100 metres (6,900 ft) above sea level;

Therefore, our route for this tour should be flexible, no fixed dates, just a promise of excellent wine tasting and delicious food combined with a trip to some of the most beautiful parts of Georgia at the time that suits you.

This wonderful easy day tour leads us to the Lower Kartli. Explore ancient history of Georgia, Extensive archaeological site of Dmanisi, where was discovered earliest hominid remains beyond Africa (1,8 million years ago), oldest extant three-nave basilica with the oldest inscriptions in Georgia etc
Preserved by its long isolation, the Upper Svaneti region of the Caucasus is an exceptional example of mountain scenery with medieval-type villages and tower-houses. The village of Chazhashi still has more than 200 of these very unusual houses, which were used both as dwellings and as defence posts against the invaders who plagued the region.

Stunning place. Zaza and his co-owners could not have been better hosts, with delicious and plentiful food, a tour of the vineyard and the winery itself, and a chance to experience some of Georgia's more unique grape varieties. Definitely check it out!

We had a great holiday with Zaza. He is friendly, knowledgeable and willing to talk about anything. His approach was very flexible, so both he and we included additional things based on our interests. He is punctual and is very free with his time. We learned a lot and had a very pleasurable trip to Georgia. We had Zaza’s Saperavi wine at his vineyard, together with a great meal. I thought his wine was the best one we had on our trip, and we tried a lot of wines!

Reaching here in the middle of a road trip, “Zaza” was a great host who explained all the mastery of Georgian winemaking and let us taste their products while detailing differences between grapes and tastes. I enjoyed every moment here and definitely worth it.

Проездом (случайно) зашли в ресторан Artozani в Телави. Понравилось оформление заведения, меню и ответственный подход к делу хозяина (его имя Лаша). Очень понравилось качество подаваемого вина.
За разговором с Лашей выяснилось, что вино он делает сам, и это семейное дело (отец Лаши развивает свою небольшую винодельню).
Так мы познакомились с отцом Лаши - Зазой.
Заза в дальнейшем провел нам исключительно познавательную и выпивательную (смысл про вино говорить и нормально его не пить??) экскурсию по виноделию и району Телави.
В результате Телави (да и вся Грузия) заиграли для нас новыми красками :).
Без преувеличения, на таких людях все и держится в этом мире. Тех, кто любит свое непростое дело, и делают его честно, с душой.
Всем очень рекомендуем к посещению и ресторан Artozani и винодельню Wine trails. Узнаете из первых рук много нового по виноделию,по истории Телави, а самое главное, получите Море добрых и позитивных эмоций!
Желаю этим прекрасным людям процветания бизнеса!
