Saperavi Brothers at Femme Fête
Femme Fête was born out of a desire to break stereotypes. The recent festival was an invitation to meet women winemakers who prioritize responsible farming, fair labor, and natural or sustainable methods. Two of Saperavi Brothers’ producers accepted the invitation to represent women winemakers of Georgia- Nini Chkheidze of Simonica and Ketevan Hubert of Tilisma. They spent the day interacting with hundreds of attendees in Boston bringing Georgian wine to life with yet another audience.

Our Inaugural Guided Tour to Georgia!
In 2026, we’re heading to where it all began, and we’re bringing a small group with us. This will be Saperavi Brothers’ first-ever guided tour to Georgia, designed for people who love wine, food, and discovering a place from the inside out. Georgia isn’t just another wine region; it’s the birthplace of wine itself, and this trip is all about experiencing that history in real life.
Femme Fête with Simonica and Tilisma Winery
Femme Fête comes to Boston in February 2026, bringing a signature mix of great wine, inspiring stories, and women-led creativity to the city. Femme Fête is celebrating female makers from around the world, and this year Georgia is making a particularly strong impression.

Chelti Winery: Age-Worthy Georgian Wines
Ana Mirianashvili of Chelti Winery was recently interviewed by the wine and spirits platform Unicorn on the age-worthiness of Georgian wines. The article’s writer Carissa Chesanek details the history of Georgian wines as highly age-worthy due to ancient winemaking traditions, particularly the use of qvevri, underground clay vessels that allow slow, stable fermentation and maturation. These methods produce structured red wines from Saperavi and amber wines from Rkatsiteli with strong longevity.
From New York City: Amber Georgia Wine Fair 2025
On November 8th, more than 30 winemakers from Georgia gathered in Brooklyn for a first-of-its-kind celebration: the Amber Georgia Wine Fair. Organized by the Natural Wine Association of Georgia, the National Wine Agency of Georgia, and New York’s Ruffian Wine Bar, the wine fair offered an immersive experience into one of Georgia’s most distinctive wine traditions.
Bagineti Winery: From Mountain to Monastery
At Bagineti Winery, wine isn’t just made, it’s lived. Located in the historic city of Mtskheta, the wine cellar stands on the grounds of the Church of St. Barbara, giving the wines a unique monastic character. Surrounding the church is a beekeeping farm, adding another layer to the monastic lifestyle and reminding visitors that the work here is about more than wine, it’s about reviving and preserving a way of life.
Tilisma Winery: Playful and Seriously Drinkable
Earlier this summer, Saperavi Brothers had the opportunity to further explore Tilisma Winery, a small family-run winery making “natural wines with soul”. This visit turned into a full-blown partnership, and we’re excited to introduce this gem to our portfolio.
Putting Georgian Wine on the Map
As an importer, we take a lot of pride in choosing winemakers who can truly represent what Georgia has to offer. Georgian wine has an incredible history, but here in the U.S., it’s still flying under the radar, and we’re working hard to change that.
Kosta’s Trip to Georgia: Wine, Stories, and New Connections
Our founder, Kosta, recently made a trip to Georgia with two things in mind: supporting the local wine scene and finding new ways to share it with wine lovers back in the U.S. Along the way, he met some amazing winemakers, swapped stories, and tasted wines that have been perfected over generations. It was a trip full of connection, inspiration, and, of course, great wine.
