Fun Fact
Ancient Valley was established shortly after Georgia’s independence in 1990. The founder returned to his birthplace to replant vineyards and revive lost traditions. Since then, the winery has been known for artisanal wines from its own vineyard, made with love for land, grape, and people. The Alazani Valley wines are named after the fertile valley where the vineyards are located – one of Georgia’s most valued terroirs.
