A guide to the Georgian wines - the publication Granik's Guide to Georgian Wines, named the Badagoni Alaverdi Tradition Dry Red as the best classic red wine.

The Badagoni Alaverdi Tradition Dry Red Wine is made from the Saperavi grape variety, which is grown in the vineyards planted near the Alaverdi Monastery. This amazing wine is given a particular value by the fact that its fermentation takes place in the historical cellar, special oak barrels of the 11th-century Alaverdi Monastery, and further ageing - in the French oak barrels. Unforgettable smell and taste, varietal aromas, plum and berry tones of Saperavi - these are the characteristics of the wine that give the Alaverdi Tradition a worthy place among the best wines.

The publication Granik has been presenting the best Georgian wines for several years, and this time, the greatest ones were revealed in 23 categories.

Granik's Guide to Georgian Wines was published in 2020 and 2024. The book serves as the first complete guideline to the Georgian bottled wines, the purpose of which is to promote the Georgian wineries and their products both in Georgia and worldwide. 

It is noteworthy that the Badagoni Alaverdi Tradition is the winner of gold medals at many international competitions.
