Vazisubani Estate Wines

Discover the essence of Georgian wine in the heart of the Kakheti wine region. Across 35 hectares of estate vineyards, we cultivate indigenous grape varieties—Saperavi, Rkatsiteli, Kisi, Khikhvi, and Kakhuri Mtsvane—rooted in a terroir known for its distinctive character.

Under the guidance of Head Winemaker Lado Uzunashvili, an 11th-generation winemaker, we produce wines that honor Georgia’s living wine heritage—each bottle a testament to centuries of tradition and craftsmanship.

Qvevri Winemaking:
8,000 Years of Tradition

At Vazisubani Estate, we follow the ancient Georgian qvevri method—using large clay vessels buried underground, where wines ferment and age on their skins and lees. This natural, time-honoured process gives white wines their distinctive amber hue and textured depth, while reds develop remarkable balance and structure.

Each spring, we draw the wines from the qvevri for the first time—bottling them with minimal intervention, true to the land and tradition of Kakheti.
