"The unique varieties of wine produced by Georgia have more potential in the American market. Georgia has its own endemic varieties, and I think presenting them to the market is the right position. In the last decade, we have been consistently working to increase the awareness of the local Georgian varieties, such as Saperavi; among them, wine made in a pitcher [kvevri] is the great advantage of the Georgian wine," - the Minister said.

To be informed, according to the data of 7 months of 2022, wine worth of $121 million was exported to the export markets, which is only 2.9% less than the figure of the same period of 2021. Georgia’s largest export (59.6%) market is Russia again, with the revenue of $72.2 million. Poland ranked 2nd - with the revenue of $8.6 million, and China ranked 3rd - with the revenue of $8 million.
