THE SANCTUARY

A Living Cellar Built for Friends & Guests

Wine Trails Marani is not a high-volume commercial factory. Located in the shadow of the historic 6th-century Ikalto Academy, our cellar is dedicated to preserving authentic Georgian viticulture and offering genuine hospitality.

Here, every bottle is crafted with patient subterranean fermentation, and every guest is welcomed as an honored visitor to our table.

Une excellente expérience à Winery Wine Trails à Ikalto ! L’accueil est exceptionnel, les hôtes sont extrêmement chaleureux et accueillants, et les vins sont vraiment très bons. Le domaine est impressionnant et la visite permet une véritable immersion dans la culture géorgienne ainsi que dans les racines et les traditions du vin en Géorgie. On ressent toute la passion et l’authenticité du lieu. Une très belle découverte en Kakhétie que je recommande vivement !

Accueilli comme il se devait , les personnes sur places sont d’une gentillesse sans égale, nous avons déguster 3 vins d’une qualité remarquable et manger des plats typiquement géorgien tout bonnement fabuleux, ce fut un repas Divin. Je conseille vivement de vivre cette expérience à fond! Je recommande !!!

Nous n'avions pas réservé ni annoncé notre passage et nous sommes arrêtés un peu par hasard. Nous avons été accueillis avec grande gentillesse et courtoisie. Le lieu est agréable, simple, essentiel. Nous zona demandé simplement faire une dégustation. Trois vins remarquables proposés sans limitation, plus une chacha. Le propriétaire, qui cuisine aussi, nous a apporté, alors qu'il était par ailleurs occupé, du fromage, du pain, de l'huile, des noix, du jambon sec maison, des oignons. Moment vraiment remarquable tant l'accueil réservé a été distingué, délicat et attentionné. Produits de grande qualité. Un sourire sincère et élégant. Le tout pour une participation financière plus que modeste. Très bel endroit simple, authentique et humain. Merci
