Akhmeta Wine House 〰️

Akhmeta Wine House is a family-owned winery located in the Kakheti region of eastern Georgia, established in 2014. Nestled at the meeting point of the Ilto, Alazani, and Orvili rivers, the estate benefits from a diverse range of soils—limestone, marl, and volcanic rock—which help shape the character of its wines.

Dedicated to organic and natural winemaking, the winery has been part of Georgia’s Natural Wine Association since its early years. Its vineyards were certified organic in 2019, and the wines followed suit in 2020, under the standards of Caucascert, Georgia’s recognized organic certification body.

Akhmeta Wine House specializes in indigenous Georgian grape varieties such as Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane, Saperavi, Khikhvi, Kisi, and Kakhuri Mtsvivani. All grapes are hand-harvested and vinified using traditional qvevri (clay amphorae buried underground), with spontaneous fermentation by native yeasts and long maceration on skins—often up to six months. The wines are unfiltered and showcase the full, phenolic richness of Georgian winemaking heritage.

Exporting to the United States, the EU, China, and Japan, Akhmeta Wine House stands out for its commitment to tradition, terroir, and transparency.
