Did you know that wine has been made in Georgia for over 8,000 years?!? And we're not talking about the state of Georgia - we're talking about The Republic of Georgia, straddling Europe and Asia. Wineries in this region are mostly small production facilities on family farms using ancient, traditional winemaking processes.
