Top 5 Most Famous Georgian Grapes

1. Saperavi
   The bold, dark red grape of Kakheti, known for producing deep, full-bodied wines with rich berry and spice notes. It’s the backbone of Georgia’s most famous reds.
   
2. Rkatsiteli
   One of the oldest white grape varieties in the world, Rkatsiteli is versatile and often used in amber qvevri wines. Crisp, refreshing, and uniquely Georgian.
   
3. Mtsvane (Kakhetian Green)
   Meaning “green” in Georgian, this aromatic grape produces lively wines with floral and citrus flavors, often blended with Rkatsiteli for balance.
   
4. Kisi
   A rare but beloved variety, Kisi gives golden-hued wines that are both fragrant and complex, often with honeyed notes when aged in qvevri.
   
5. Usakhelouri
   Grown in the mountainous region of Racha, this grape is considered a jewel of Georgian viticulture. It produces semi-sweet red wines and is one of the rarest (and most expensive) Georgian varieties.

And as Tbilisi hosts the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2025, the world will not only hear Georgia’s young voices but may also taste its heritage in every glass of wine made from these grapes. Both music and winemaking remind us that Georgia is a land where tradition flows into the future, inspiring generations across borders.
