The annual festival, organised with the support of the Natural Wine Association and the National Wine Agency of Georgia, aims to increase awareness of Georgian natural wine and promote the growth of its export to the world markets, the Agency said.

The event presents the wines made only in the traditional and natural way, without the use of mineral fertilisers, herbicides and other additives, and hosts wine importers, journalists, writers and other industry professionals from different countries.
