The National Wine Agency of Georgia is an organization responsible for development of wine sector through quality control and promotional activities to increase international awareness of Georgian Wine, supporting companies with wine export and issuing wine export certificates.
In 2006, in the heart of Georgia’s historic winemaking region of Kakheti, within the Akhmeta subregion, in the village of Zemo Khodasheni, Giorgi Salakaia embarked on a mission that was vital for the country—a nation with immense potential yet underdeveloped in its wine industry.
The location, blessed with all the natural resources for producing exceptional wines, was in poor and neglected condition at the time. Despite the challenges, Salakaia and his dedicated team began the journey from scratch, undertaking immense effort and hard work. Today, their perseverance has transformed the venture into the leading wine producer in Georgia, serving as one of the nation’s finest ambassadors on the global stage.
