Next to the Georgian vines, Pinot Noir, the only foreign grape variety there, is also grown.

About the vineyard

Tsinandali vineyard, cultivated on a limestone soil, is surrounded by two ravines and an oak forest. The specific soil of the vineyard, microclimate of the ravine/forest, and special micro-zone, ensure a unique terroir.

Part of the Tsinandali vineyard is used for the production of organic wine, with the land and vines cultivated using biodynamic methods according to the lunar phases. The result is Saperavi biodynamic organic wine.
