Historical Work of L. Jorjadze Published as a Book at the Initiative of the National Wine Agency
Within the framework of the National Wine Agency’s “Scientific Program for the Study of Georgian Vine and Wine Culture,” the historical work of L. Jorjadze has been published as a book.
The work “Viticulture and Wine Production, Preparation and Improvement: A Guide for Kakhetian Winemakers” is an edited, modern-reader-adapted version of a historical text originally published in 1876.
The book discusses a wide range of viticulture and winemaking topics, including historical and statistical information, the climate of viticultural regions, vineyard soils, winery arrangement, harvest practices, wine diseases and defects, the preparation of qvevri vessels, and other important subjects. The information presented in the publication is based both on foreign literature and on the author’s practical experience in the field of viticulture and winemaking in Kakheti.
The publication is intended for professionals and researchers in viticulture and winemaking, as well as the wider public interested in the subject.
The book was published within the serial edition “Georgian Vine and Wine: Literary Heritage” of the “Scientific Project for the Study of Georgian Vine and Wine Culture,” in cooperation with the association Georgian Wine.
