Vineyards spanning hectares, vintages with polyphonic songs in the background, Qvevri (vessels) brimming with wine, captivating nature, sunny beaches, canyons, ancient culture, mysterious rock-cut towns, always snowy mountains, mountain lakes, alpine meadows, valleys full of flowers and fruit trees, palm beaches, ancient caves, mineral waters and sulfur pools, diverse gastronomy, hospitable people – these are the essential parts of Georgia.
Georgia is located in the Caucasus region, at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. It covers 69,700 square kilometers. The capital, Tbilisi, is the largest city in the country. Georgia has a rich historical heritage that dates back to the fourth century BC. It’s corroborated by the discovery of a skull in the town of Dmanisi in 1999. Nowadays, the people of Dmanisi are thought to be the oldest inhabitants of the Eurasian continent and are even referred to as the first Europeans.
Georgia is a country filled with unforgettable memories. This small country has everything a traveler could possibly want. Georgia’s holiday season lasts all year due to its diverse range of ecological and climatic zones.
Georgian traditional dishes are notable because they first entice you, then fascinate you, and eventually leave you in a state of gourmet shock. Georgian supra (feast) would be inconceivable without Georgian polyphonic music, which has been recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
With a population of slightly more than 3.5 million people, the country produces approximately 150 million liters of wine each year. For Georgians, a vineyard is a sacred place, and making wine is a treasured tradition. Any Georgian will proudly treat you to wine here.
Gugensson AB will continue to host outside of Georgia.
