Georgia participated as an honored guest at the International Wine Festival held in Korea
The wines of 15 Georgian wine producers, both large companies and small wineries, were presented at the international festival "Daejeon International Wine Festival" in Daejeon, the Republic of Korea, with the support of the National Wine Agency.
Georgia participated in the festival as an honored guest this year.
The Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Georgia to the Republic of Korea, Tarash Papasqua, attended the festival.
Presentation of Georgian wine at such large-scale events serves as the mean to diversify export markets of Georgian wine.
Within the framework of the three-day exhibition, Georgian wine producers had the opportunity to present their products to local wine professionals, which is one of the prerequisites for interest in Georgian wine and subsequent sales growth.
According to the assessment of Georgian wine producers participating in the exhibition, the South Korean market, along with China and Japan markets, is a promising market for Georgian wine.
The first presentation of Georgian wine in the Republic of Korea took place in 2015 at the exhibition "Seoul International Wines and Spirits Expo".
