A tunnel winery inside the mountain. At the entrance musicians traditionally dressed will welcome you with a Georgian song. Then you will be given a blanket as the temperature inside the tunnel is about 16 degrees. A collection of old wines in the shelve cellars on the walls. In a separate route in the tunnel there are wells in the floor for wine maturity, also used as store places and tables for wine tasting. Outside a view to a large area vineyard at the boundaries of the winery's area. A route inside the nature and areas of vineyards for reaching there. This is the experience. This is the difference from other wineries.

I was familiar with one of their wines beforehand (and it's my favorite wine), so I was really looking forward to seeing where the magic happens and tasting more wines. And I was not disappointed! Our tour guide Mari and tasting guide Natya were great! They explained everything in (pretty decent) English, and answered all our questions. I really enjoyed all the wines in the tasting and can't wait to go back! Thank you!
