Georgian Wine - National Wine Agency

With the support of the National Wine Agency and organized by the Agency’s contractor marketing company Red Bridge, a presentation of Georgian wine was held in the city of Fukuoka, Japan.
The presentation on Georgia’s winemaking culture, history, grape varieties, and modern wine industry was delivered by the Director of Red Bridge, Japan's only Master of Wine, Kenichi Ohashi. He also introduced eight Georgian wines from various winemaking regions of Georgia to the guests. The event was attended by sommeliers, importers, buyers, representatives of retail chains, and media, with a total of around 100 guests.
The port city of Fukuoka is considered one of Japan’s major industrial centers. Marketing activities carried out in this city are important for raising awareness and increasing the popularity of Georgian wine both in Fukuoka Prefecture and more broadly across the Japanese wine market.
The National Wine Agency has been cooperating with Red Bridge since 2017. The company’s activities on Japan’s strategic market include various marketing events promoting Georgian wine. These activities aim to increase awareness and, consequently, demand for Georgian wine in the Japanese market.
