About Château Mukhrani

A 19th-century palace and winery of the Mukhranbatoni princes in the Mukhrani valley of Kartli, restored as a working wine estate. It offers cellar tours, tastings and meals, and pairs well with a morning in Mtskheta.

Travel Tips

Palace and cellar tour about 15 GEL; a meal with wine about 60-120 GEL. Book tastings and masterclasses ahead. A good Plan B when the Jvari Pass closes in winter.

Georgian Wine Tour — 7 Days, Private: Kakheti & Kartli

Round trip (6–14 days)
Wine & food

A week following Georgian wine from Kartli to Kakheti by private car with an English-speaking driver-guide (Russian-speaking on request) who doesn't drink. You start at Château Mukhrani near Tbilisi, then spend four nights in Kakheti: the Kbilashvili qvevri makers in Vardisubani, the Tsinandali estate and its enoteca, the Twins qvevri cellar in Napareuli, the monks' cellar at Alaverdi, a family supra with a tamada, and the natural-wine cellars of Sighnaghi. Back in Tbilisi you spend an evening in the natural-wine bars, and on day six you visit the Kvemo Kartli hills south of the city, where archaeologists found Georgia's 8,000-year-old wine residue, and a cellar near Bolnisi. In September and October the trip becomes a harvest edition with a day in a family vineyard. Racha (Khvanchkara) can be added as a 2-day extension from June to October.
