👍 A really great experience and I have to say, the best value from any of the other tastings I experienced or inquired about. We had 6 very delicious wines (1 white, 1 "green", 1 "amber", 1 rosé, and 2 "black"/red) along with cheese, bread, and some really fantastic sunflower oil. The total cost was...

    A really great experience and I have to say, the best value from any of the other tastings I experienced or inquired about. We had 6 very delicious wines (1 white, 1 "green", 1 "amber", 1 rosé, and 2 "black"/red) along with cheese, bread, and some really fantastic sunflower oil. The total cost was 35₾ per person. They have a really gorgeous balcony where you can take your time sipping and snacking... it was very fantastic. Levan was very friendly. I was only a little disappointed that I had maybe read too many reviews and expected to hopefully see the qvevri where the wine is made or drink out of the cute clay cups which some other people have said were really nice parts of their experiences.

    Not convinced this place has the best wines in the region, but I had such fun at the wine tasting. We went in a group without a reservation on a Tuesday afternoon. Our group was combined with two guys who arrived before us, and latecomers after, which I thought was fun. The man who did our wine tasting was refreshingly casual, allowing us to express our views on each wine with honesty and levity. Great value for money, we tried at least 8 wines and a brandy and a chacha. We stayed for hours and never felt rushed. I particularly enjoyed their brandies and chachas. I believe all the wines are natural. The drinks you taste are all made by this winery. The view from their terrace is incredible.

    Paul was an amazing host. We walked in expecting a generic tasting. Paul provided us with the best wine tasting experience of the trip. So informative, personal and enjoyable. We only wish we had more time to stay and enjoy.

    The host of this winery and the atmosphere there is something exceptional. We tried several types of local Georgian wine, had a really warm welcome and had a nice conversation with the owner. The landscape, wine, hospitality- everything were perfect. Thanks so much for a nice evening there!

    Attila made us feel very comfortable and we enjoyed several different (very good!) white / red wines and chacha varieties. The terrace is wonderful and also the tour to the wine cellar was very informative (he speaks really good English!). He made sure to explain everything in detail and answer all our questions. Best price/value! Highly recommended!

    This was such a lovely unexpected surprise coming by this marani. Attila and Szilvia were just amazing with their knowledge of wine and they were so kind, welcoming, wnd gracious. The view and the atmosphere were just fantastic and the wine is first class. I definitely recommend visiting Cradle of Wine on your trip to Sighnaghi:)

    We had the best time with Paul and others. He entertained us with his sense of humour and knowledge for hours. The view from the balcony is outstanding! His wines are qvevri and lovely , not to mention the delicious bread and cheese he puts out. Paul is incredibly hospitable and worth a visit. Thank you for a memorable time. :)
