"Tavankari" wine producing company was established in year 2015, relatively young but counts decades of family wine making tradition. Roots go as far to the third generation of wine making experience and is inspired by the tradition of family winemaking history. (which was: having access to own family wine vintage on a yearly basis. This family tradition predated recorded history). Company name was exceptionally chosen to revive those ancient traditions into comtemporary winemaking..: “Tavankari” is an ancient word for a rare, pure, most authentic and top quality wine in Georgia. wines crafted from the finest grapes, give it uniquely harmonious and delicate aroma, and are aged to perfection to make sure it lives up to its name. Today Tavankari wine is family owned (small) company that produces premium quality red and white wines as: Mukuzani, Tsinandali, Kisi, and Mtsvane, by using primerly unique traditional Kakhetian winemaking technique, as well as wines where European classic technique is employed. Company also produces limited amount of unique Qvevri wine (the vintage is harvested and delivered for processing to a special room called a marani (winery), where grapes juice is added to huge clay amphora called a Qvevri for fermentation. This is the gentlest way to obtain juicy pulp because seeds remain intact and do not release unnecessary tannins which might give the wine an excessively strong bitter taste. These jugs are dug into the earth with the hole accessible at floor level. This provides consistent temperature during fermentation. As the surface of the Qvevri is rather porous, the inner walls are covered with a thin layer of natural beeswax. Today company exports its wines mostly in europe: Belgium, France, Monako, Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Ukraine, Norway and searches its potential niche in new emerging markets.
