The Many Colors of Georgian Wine - Educational Series on Georgian wine
The great news is that Georgian wines' popularity continues to grow (imports to the US were up 50% in 2020 despite the pandemic!!) and with it we have a growing group of wine professionals who are actively involved in selling and sharing Georgian wines with other industry professionals and most importantly consumers. These amazing people, like yourselves, are at varying levels of experience with Georgian wine, but a resounding cry among our contacts in over 20 states is “we need more knowledge! We are ready to dive deeper!” Georgian wine is so rich with tradition, and so alive that there are so much to explore, discover and share with each other. And let's face it some of our varieties can be a mouthful!
In response, in 2021 we, Georgian Wine House, launched a new educational series for wine professionals across the US focused on creating and fostering a community who will dive deeper into Georgian wine, its traditions, new and established producers, new varietals and more. Our goal is to create a community and resources to support members who participate in every stage of bringing Georgian wines to folks in the US, distributors, sales representatives, wine shops, sommeliers, servers, writers and more!
Every month we will hold a virtual seminar for parts of our communities in different regions of the US. In each of the seminars we will:
1) discuss a theme or topic of Georgian wine that is important to our wine community
2) have featured speakers (winemakers, wine professionals, you get the idea!)
3) provide samples of three wines related to the theme for you and your teams to taste!
