Wine News, an Italian daily, published a series of articles about Georgian wine and Georgia’s tourism potential.

The Wine News journalist visited Georgia within the framework of the press tour organized by the National Tourism Administration.

The article highlights the “enormous symbolic value” of Qvevri, the traditional Georgian clay vessel for wine storage. The author says that wine in Georgia is closely associated with the Sun and solar energy. The article explains the role of the Qvevri in storing the liquid while being buried in the soil, from which “it will be reborn, like many divinities, obviously starting from Dionysus”.

The Wine News webpage has 40 thousand visitors daily. Three journalists from Wine News visited Georgia as part of the Merano Wine Festival in June, which went beyond the borders of Italy for the first time in 2022 and was hosted by Château Mukhrani, in partnership with the Georgian Wine Association.
