The Georgian wine tasting was held in London with the support of the National Wine Agency
The event was led by Sarah Abbott, Master of Wine, head of the British company Swirl Wine Group, a contractor for the National Wine Agency.
The event was attended by more than 70 guests - sommeliers, wine trade, and media representatives.
Georgian wine importers presented about 150 Georgian wines at a tasting in London, including wines that are not yet sold on the British wine market.
Along with the tasting of Georgian wines, the presentation of Sarah Abbott included the introduction of Georgian wine culture and history and vine varieties to the guests.
In order to popularize Georgian wine, increase its export potential and establish itself on the UK market, the National Wine Agency has been cooperating with Swirl Wine Group LTD, a company of Sarah Abbott Wine since 2015. The UK is one of the largest importers and consumers of wine in the world, which since 2014 has emerged as one of the potentially growing strategic markets for Georgian wine exports. In 2021, 736391 bottles of wine were exported to the UK, an increase of 71% compared to 2020.
