KTW 2013-2014 YEARS

Zurab Ckhaidze

Company “Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking” (KTW) is

one of the country’s leading Georgian companies, which have

contributed greatly to development of winemaking industry in

Georgia, as well as to great cause of the national significance

– seeking and maintenance of the forgotten vine varieties and

restoration of traditional Georgian winemaking. The main

principle of KTW activities is relying upon Strong Georgian

roots, perfect combination of the modern and traditional, and

ensuring high quality of the products.

Past two years, were particularly productive for the

Company – new investments, new technologies, new factories,

newly born ancient Georgian vine varieties, and numerous new

projects – these are the achievements providing guarantee of

future success of KTW.

Mr. Zurab Chkhaidze, the founder of “Kakhetian Traditional

Winemaking”-Group told us about Company’s activities

For KTW, year 2013 was decisive, with respect of

production, as past year we have made many interesting and

significant investments. First of all, I would like to mention

investment made in village Patardzeuli. For the purpose of

testing of investment effectiveness we installed here the

separate brandy and wine bottling lines manufactured by

“Della Tofola”, filled the wine warehouses and by this we

ended testing. We needed it, for testing of all production

details not seen at one glance. We obtained good results. In

ordinary mode we produce 70 thousand bottles, and in case

of 3-shift work – even up to 100 thousand bottles per day. And

this means that investment made last year was reasonable and

we have made correct step. You are aware that Patardzeuli is

some kind of tourist gates of Kakheti and significant flows of

guests move in and out. Therefore, at Patardzeuli factory we

arranged the wine testing hall and well equipped firm shop

“Wine Way” and transferred one of the rooms to National

Tourism Administration, where the tourist center was located.

In addition to production expansion, we have significant

news with respect of geographical expansion as well. In late

2013 we commenced and in 2014 continued investing into

the factory processing 5.000 tons of grapes located at village

Velistsikhe, Gurjaani District. Investment is GEL 8 millions

and investing will be further continued in the next year. We

shall also start construction of tourist facility of Georgian

wine cellar type. Construction will be completed in 2016 and

conditionally it will be called “Royal Mukuzani”.

As we are talking about Kakheti, I would like to tell you

about one more thing. We have made decision to expand

our raw materials base, as we regard that ownership of the

vineyards is of great significance for our activities. For this

purpose, this year we have purchased the vineyards arranged

by our famous and popular singer and charity provider, very

good friend of mine, Paata Burchiladze and the adjacent

vineyards in Tsinandali District. We shall continue investing of

this line in the future. I would like to say that we took care

about protection of out vineyards and procured modern, US

manufactured, gas-type hail protection aggregate and it will

protect our vineyards from the natural phenomena. I would

like to tell you also that the main priority of our Company is

providing high quality and safe products to our consumers.

For this purpose, last year we have introduced ISO22000:2005

standard requiring strict control of the products’ quality at all

stages of production (from the vineyards to the consumers’

tables).

Now I shall tell you about new zone - Guria-Adjaria.

There are numerous forgotten grape varieties. Last year

we purchased old, amortized wine factory in Keda and

commenced construction of the modern wine factory to

provide services to high mountain regions of Adjaria. Here

grow very good Chkhaveri and Tsolikauri grapes and we

would like to participate in development of this sector. We

commenced extensive cooperation with local vine growers.

We made the first steps in this direction – we procured 60.000

nurslings of Chkhaveri, Tsolikauri and Butko and transferred

them to the peasants free of any charge. We shall provide

consultations to them and when the vines yield the grapes, on

the basis of the contracts made in advance, we shall procure

grapes at market price. We shall continue these activities in the

future. This could be called charity, or social project, or simply

attention to revival of the forgotten old varieties, the fact is

that there is mutually beneficial cooperation between us. This

process should not be stopped. I think, 1-million investment

made in Adjaria – arrangement of the refrigeration facility and

grape processing equipment – would meet the requirements

of Adjaria at this stage.

As for Guria, I did not need too much time to find the

place attractive for the tourists loving wine – with the old

wine cellar, wine processing appliances and comfortable

conditions. All these requirements are fully complied with by

my native beautiful village Askana, where my forefathers were

engaged in winemaking for over the century. Here was located

the wine cellar of Antimoz Chkhaidze, my grandfather. There

is large clay vessel for wine dated by 1883 in that cellar. We

developed the project

We have developed the project with two-year term. Quite

significant and hard work was done, one should not hurry

when doing such things—architecture of the building should

be suitable to the nature, it should be some combination of

the old and new styles, it should include Gurian and Adjarian

ethnographic elements and at the same time the guests there

should feel comfortable. Therefore, we seek perfect solutions

all the time. Project will be completed next year and everything

must be ready to host the guests. This project—Askana Wine

Cellar “Royal Askana” - will inevitably fit into the touristic

“Wine Way”. In this respect, we closely cooperate with both,

local and central government, as some works shall be funded

by local municipality and some—by the central government.

When we presented the project of Royal Askana, the common

sense celebrated victory and the problem of funding of water

supply to three villages was solved immediately. Within the

scopes of the project the old piping made 50-70 years ago

will be replaced. The government will participate in funding

of improvement of the road to the village to ensure that the

tourists will arrive to Askana without any delays.

I think that so called “Green Project” launched in Adjara

would be interesting and necessary in Guria as well. The

project provides for distribution of vine nurslings among

the population. Therefore, we shall implement the vine

distribution project in Ozurgeti and Chokhatauri districts in

the following years as well. In Guria, in addition to Chkhaveri,

gradually disappeared because of grape-louse in the past

century and now growing in our vineyards, there are numerous

forgotten varieties: for example Jani, now grown in non-

industrial quantities, legendary Sakmiela. Maybe the name of

the variety originates from incense, evidencing its association

with the religious rituals; there are many other varieties. You

know, we have already started working in this respect but this

work cannot yield immediate results. Though, we are sure

that in four or five years the results will be indeed impressive.

As for Saguramo project, it is of rather patriotic

and spiritual nature. We had to fight with various state

organizations to save Chavcavadze’s vineyards from selling

and ruining. Mr. Andro Bedukadze, Director of Saguramo

Museum of Ilia Chavchavadze and his friends, under the

leadership of Tamaz Tkemaladze, the member of KTW Board

of Elders have contributed greatly to this. As a result of our

insistent efforts we finally received on lease the territory of

Chavchavadze’s vineyards, as well as the old wine cellar of

Tadeoz Guramishvili, actually abandoned for 30 years and we

started the restoration works. It turned out that restoration is

much harder than construction of new buildings—we revive

the old wine cellar inch by inch. This place is the source of

spiritual wealth—on one hand Ilia Chavchavadze and on the

other—David Guramishvili, or Tadeoz Guramishvili and their

outstanding family. In my opinion, their role in the history of

Eastern Georgia is unduly forgotten. After project completion,

in Saguramo there will be the wine cellar, as well as complete

information about this outstanding family. This is not done for

the tourists only. It is significant that our children and youth

got familiarized with the history of their country and know

as much as possible about their famous forefathers. We shall

arrange the necessary infrastructure for this. Simultaneously,

on 5-6 ha area of Chavchavadze’s vineyards we shall plant the

nurslings of the forgotten vine varieties, including Khikhvi,

Kosi, Goruli Mtsvane, as well as several varieties of red grapes.

In addition, we have consultations with Mr. Levan Ujmajuridze

to commence Green Project here and distribute the vine

nurslings to the farmers free of charge. In this richest region of

viticulture the restored forgotten varieties will give the wines

of absolutely different organoleptic properties.

I have stated many times and I shall repeat once more-

WI would like to thank the initiator and unconditionally sole

author of Green Project, Mr. Bidzina Ivanishvili, who, 7 years

ago, immediately provided funding work of the professionals

of restoring of the ancient Georgian vine varieties as Levan

Ujmajuridze and members of his team, headed by Yuri Nozadze.

Our efforts yielded the results and currently 437 varieties of

Georgian vine are restored. This project allows any region

of Georgia to provide regional development of viticulture.

Actually, this would revitalize viticulture. In England, London,

in Vinopolis, the wine museum, the special hall is dedicated

to Georgia, where there is written that Georgia is a cradle of

wine. Here I can see the visible cradle, about 500 ancient vine

varieties, most of which were already forgotten and some of

them were brought from Turkey, some-from Tao Klarjeti and

some-from various regions of Georgia, from private vineyards.

Actually, these varieties were lost for us. I would like to state

with sorrow that this project, so significant for Georgia is not

properly appreciated, though I hope that the time will come

and its national significance will become clear for all.

I would like to inform you that we have one more new

line-fruit canning enterprise. Adjara and Guria regions are rich

with various fruits but these fruits are often lost because of

absence of processing facilities. KTW submitted the projects

of small processing enterprises and won in two regions:

Adjara-Keda and Guria-Chokhatauri. I would not like to discuss

these issues now, as we now work and study, though we shall

complete both factories this year. We know what we should

obtain, what should be sold and in the next issue of the

magazine I shall be able to tell you more about this.

These were the most significant news with respect of

production in 2013-2014.

Regarding past year, I shall admit that opening of Russian

market was a good stimulus for us. We were the first, who

entered Russian market, and we have quite good achievements

in this period. We have very experienced partners, we have

made relations with some of them before the ban and they,

as well as the others, expressed great interest in cooperation

with KTW and this is some kind of stimulus for us. Though, we

don’t want to depend on Russian market exclusively, as it is

excessively politicized and no one knows, what may happen

tomorrow. Therefore, we are seeking the alternatives. We

work with China for 5 years and the sales never decreased.

Past year we found the new partners from China and we work

with them effectively and plan to double the sales next year.

Finally, I have to say once more, as I have mentioned

many times, freeing of the entrepreneurs from the fear and

state support to the industry last year provided significant

results-sector in general expanded and the products for over

170 million were manufactured. This is indeed significant

result. With respect of the money, we have not had such

achievements even before the Russian ban.

В статье Генерального директора и основателя компании KTW-Group (Кахетинское Традиционное Виноделие), Зураба Чхаидзе, описана её деятельность, нацеленная на следующие приоритеты:

1) Выделение инвестиций для строительства новых и реконструкции старых заводов, с внедрением современ-ных технологий, причем в Кахетии и Гурии, при заводах функционируют: дегустационный зал, фирменный магазин «Винная дорога» и турцентр, где можно приобрести марочные вин.

2) Расширение сырьевой базы путем приобретения частных виноградников (в том числе и у известного певца Пааты Бурчуладзе ).

By the end of 2014 Decanter Asia and Hong Kong international competition of wine and spirits HKIWSC are scheduled, as well as the expositions in Asia: in particular, in Cheng du and Hong Kong; and in Europe: Poland and

Norway. We believe that the next year will bring more achievements and recognition and this will be not only our success but

of the country in general and Georgian wine.

В статье эксперта-менеджера, Экатерины Хмиадашвили, приводится календарь мероприятий, проведенных компанией KTW, с 2013 по 2014 год, направленных на популяризацию как грузинского виноделия, так и продукции KTW, в частности. С этой целью компания принимала участие в между-народных выставках и конкурсах, где её продукция пользовалась неизменным успехом. За истекший пе-риод, премиум-класса продукция компании получила золотую и несколько серебряных и бронзовых ме-далей. В селе Велисцихе Гурджаанского района Кахетии, начато и закончено строительство нового винного завода, способного принять 4000 тонны винограда. В селе Кеда (Верхняя Аджара), построен завод, способный полностью удовлетворить потребности местного населения, которому компания бесплатно передала 8,5 тыс. саженцев виноградной лозы. С целью укрепления деловых связей, пред-ставители компании выезжали в разные страны, а также принимали у себя гостей, что создало предпосылки для дальнейшего расширения рынков сбыта, развития сферы винного туризма и ста-билизации производства, что неоднократно подчеркивал в своих выступлениях по телевидению и в печати, Генеральный директор компании, Зураб Чхаидзе.

Through combination of the modern technologies and the ancient traditions of Kakhetian winemaking, the Company managed to maintain the unique old taste of wine. The grapes are accepted in stainless steel containers or polyethylene boxes. Accepted grapes are subject to acceptance control (examination, weighting) and placed into the receiver bin. At this point the hygiene control, visual control, variety purity control take place. Grapes processing takes place on the permanent operation line consisting of crushing, draining and pressing machines. Pomace—chacha obtained as a result of grapes processing is utilized and sweet juice is left for settling. Juice settling takes place in the vertical reservoir. Immediately after completion of fermentation the wine is poured into the

Building III

Shop for bottling of sparkling wines and bottling into the clay vessels

Company bottles the wine products into Italian glass bottles and original clay vessels. As company orders, each vessel is specially designed and there is special line for pouring into these vessels. One of the buildings entirely is dedicated to this.

For the mankind everything commenced with two types of clay vessels—porcelain and simple burnt clay. The former provides uniform and smooth surface while the latter—gives strength.

In Georgian winery the special clay vessels—kvevris are used. Wine made in kvevri is distinguished with fine taste, abundance of useful microelements. In today’s winemaking special clay—betonite (aqua-gel) is used. It improves biological stability of wine and absorbs various microorganisms (bacteria, yearn). The scientists regard Georgian aqua-gel as one of the best all over the world. The material is characterized with

EXPORTS KTW 2013-2014 YEARSKTW Exports in 2013-2014For several years KTW successfully maintains leading positions among Georgian alcohol manufacturers.According to the data of National Wine Agency, in January-June 2014, Georgian wine export to 34 countries comprise 26 872 145 bottles, 136% higher than in the similar period of 2013. This growth is conditioned by revocation of seven-year embargo by Russia and this contributed to further development and popularization of Georgian wine. In the period from January to September 2014, 70% of Georgian wine exports were to Russian Federation.Total volume of KTW exported products in 2013 was over 9.000.000 bottles.For the period from January to September 2014, exports comprised to 4.709.386 bottles.Regarding that the last quarter of the year is the most active one with respect of exports; we propose that we shall be able to maintain the same figures as in 2013, instead of expected 20-30% growth. This is caused by economic crisis in Ukraine. Nevertheless, Ukraine is still leading strategic partner for us and remains our largest and main market for sale of our products.Below are provided our brandy and wine exports to Ukraine and Russian Federation.Ukraine market is largest among the foreign markets of KTW, followed by Russia, Kazakhstan and China.Belarus market is again open for Georgia and the first batches were delivered in September, this year.Due to agreement on the zone of free trade with EU, our products will become cheaper and hence, we shall gain good chance to improve our competitiveness.

KTW-s eqsportis departamentis ufrosi

В статье руководителя департамента по экспор-ту продукции KTW, Лелы Чхeидзе, говорится о том, что среди производителей алкогольной продукции в Грузии, они занимают ведущее место, что под-тверждается данными, приведенными Националь-ного Агентства вина Грузии. В 2013-2014 годах отмечается значительный рост экспорта продук-ции компании, что, несомненно, связано со сняти-ем Российского эмбарго. Среди потребителей на первом месте находится Украина, далее следуют Россия, Казахстан, Китай и Беларусь. С каждым днем расширяется география стран-потребите-лей, чему в значительной степени способствова-ла ратификация Евросоюзом договора о свобод-ной торговле, создавшей благоприятные условия для экспорта продукции KTW.Рост популярности продукции компании среди потребителей стиму-лировал появление новых брендов, таких, как «Тби-лисская Легенда» и «Иверия».В 2015 году компания намерена увеличить объем экспорта продукции на 30%.

Company KWT was established in 2001 and faced significant competition at Georgian market from the outset. At that time, the market, at both, high end and low end, was flooded with the products, from high quality to adulterated ones, there was real chaos and hence, it was very hard to find some niche.

Company had to overcome significant competition and due to well-designed marketing measures took leading positions in the sphere of wine and alcohol beverages, at both, domestic and foreign markets. Currently the Company manufactures highly demanded various products.

Company’s key line is manufacturing of the rare wines, as well as wines of various origin by means of traditional methods, as well as production of family-produced chacha (vodka), Georgian brandy and sparkling wine. Rare grape varieties is the category of grapes requiring the microzone and special conditions of care. Their yields, compared with the varieties originated in the other locations, are low and this results in unique taste of the wine obtained from such grapes.

In 2012, the Company decided to restore and develop the grape varieties lost and forgotten in the soviet period and further produce unique wine comprising the segment of limited collector’s wines. Each bottle is given individual number and this emphasizes once more its unique nature. These products were awarded numerous prizes at various festivals and were highly valued by the consumers.

Company produces the following wines of premium class:

• “Chkhaidze’s Chkhaveri” - of high mountain regions of Guria. Wine is presented as three types: white dry; naturally rose dry wine and naturally rose semi-douce.

• “Tsitsla” - from Sviti (Imereti) microzone.

• “Tsolikauri” - from high-mountain region of Tsageri.

• “Chinuri” - from Mukhrani.

• “Muscat” (in the past it was called Buzkurdzena) - from Kakheti, the dessert wine.

In addition, the products range includes the exclusion, Riesling, the German grape variety and not Georgian. Company commenced manufacturing of this wine in 2013 and this so called experiment was success—Georgian Riesling became unusual and interesting innovation for the people loving wine. In addition, the Company started to work on the new sort of premium class wines, the consumers will have opportunity to taste them and buy, if they desire, very soon.

Since the Company was established, the structure of internal market has changed. Small street “gastronomes” were replaced by the markets and supermarkets, the buyers prefer comfortable environment where the products are presented well and where they have opportunity to make choice between different brands. At the modern supermarkets the products’ packaging, labels, brand names and exhibition to be faced by the buyer directly and make choice without any assistance.

Company’s interests includes the high class and relatively modest outlets including the network hypermarkets, as well as supermarkets, wine houses, hotels and restaurants. Hypermarkets and wine houses the products ranges are wider. All this is done for the purpose of providing greater freedom and attractive environment for the consumers.

Irrespective of small scale of domestic market, its complexity is necessity of permanent control, extensive research of the consumers’ desires and their satisfaction, it is also significant and very difficult to make loyal relations with the partner companies, respect to the interests of one another, as the main condition for maintaining strong and stable bridge of the bridge connecting them with the consumers.

Last year, at domestic market, KTW conducted the following marketing activities: the pyramid structure of so called promo island was designed and produced. Products on it can be readily seen. These islands were located in the trade areas of various supermarkets in Tbilisi with the various products of the Company depending on season—for example: he sparkling wine is significant in New Year period, therefore, in 2014, on these islands the presentation sparkling wine “Galaktioni” was presented. In the network of hypermarket Carrefour, as well as at the other outlets the products were attached the greeting cards and this was very pleasant and attractive for the consumers. In Easter time, regarding increased demand, the Company sold draught wine “Chakrulo” and the other products at significantly discounted price. We frequently arrange actions with our leading brand, “Dzveli Kakheti”. In the periods of such actions the consumers receive gifts—the brandy glass with the firm logo etc. Irrespective the season, at the hypermarkets Carrefour and Smart the wine testing is arranged every day and the consumers can taste the old and new products and buy if they desire. Products of KTW are packed in the beautiful cardboard bags. Consumers are served by promo girls wearing uniforms, they assist the consumers to make their choice. At the same time the interested guests can get familiarized with the full range of the Company’s products and offers of its tourist entities by means of the well-designed booklets. At the large markets banners of KTW’s leading brands

During the tourist seasons the Company arranges wine testing actions at Tbilisi Airport duty free, in this period the monitors demonstrate commercials, Company’s news, as well as production process to ensure pleasant impressions about the company’s image and products.

KTW participates in all events dealing with the wines, whether the wine festivals, exhibitions and others and this plays most significant role in strengthening of relations with the existing and potential partners, maintaining and increasing of the consumer’s trust and sharing of the innovations.

Company pays great attention to charity. It arranges its traditional Georgian art festival “Georgian Spirit” every year, in many arts and reaches many regions of Georgia. At these festivals the domestic sales department arranges wine testing, exhibitions and other promo events. In addition to the listed activities, KRW participates in various tenders. For example, the company participated in the tender arranged by Georgian Tourism Administration and was awarded the contract on bottling of Saperavi-type wine. According to the tender requirements the exclusive labels for wine bottles were produced, with the firm design of Tourism Administration, as well as the wooden, cardboard and leather boxes. This seemingly simple project required great responsibility and fulfillment of the tender instructions at the high level. This project, implementation of which required energetic work further deepened experience of team work. Due to the all above, sales and Company awareness grow annually resulting in further success. KRW’s team of domestic sales and marketing works hard to gain the consumers’ good attitude and for this purpose plans numerous large-scale events in the future.

В статье менеджера по внутренним продажам, Нины Ратианидзе, говорится о тех трудностях, с ко-торыми столкнулась компания при создании её в 2002 году. Рынок был забит дешевыми и фальсифицирован-ными напитками, но KTW, за счет грамотно выбранной стратегии вскоре стала лидером в конкурентной гон-ке. Наряду с укреплением базы практикуемых сортов виноградной лозы, компания особое внимание уделила возрождению редких и полузабытых сортов винограда, что создало предпосылки для производства марочных вин Премиум класса и укрепило авторитет и популяр-ность компании. Такие марки вин, как «Чхавери Чхаи-дзе», «Цицка», «Цоликаури», «Чинури» и др. неизменно отмечались медалями на международных выставках.

Широкое распространение приняла практика реа-лизация ассортимента продукции компании, как в ги-пермаркетах, так и в ресторанах, винных магазинах и супермаркетах. Компанией была внедрена практика размещения продукции на промо-островках пирами-дальной конструкции, что способствовало росту её продаж. Регулярно устраиваются смотры-акции, где желающие могут продегустировать разные вина, а покупатели получают в подарок от компании фирмен-ные сумки и буклеты. Наряду с участием в выставках и фестивалях, компания занимается и филантропиче-ской деятельностью: в частности, ежегодно в разных районах Грузии проводится фестиваль искусств.

Fruit production is the ancient traditional and highly profitable sector of Georgian agriculture. Georgian fruits are well known in Georgia and abroad for the wide range of varieties and high quality.

“Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking” decided to expand its activities in this respect as well. It has already registered two new fruit processing canning companies in Western Georgia: “Agro Keda” and “Agro Chokhatauri”. Their goal is fruit processing and production of wide range of canned Georgian fruits.

Adjaria and Guria regions are characterized with the unique species of berries, very rare in the other places. Its geographical location and natural climate ensure raw materials quality advantages and this would contribute significantlty to the success of the entity, the one, oriented to the ecologically pure local raw materials.

Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking• Attempts to restore ancient Georgian traditions,

especially those of Adjaria and Guria regions in fruits processing and production;

• Introduce international ISO standards adopted by EU member states in the region;

• To ensure work in compliance with the international standards, support improvement of qualification of the enterprise personnel and population awareness;

• Make the products popular and attract foreign consumers;

• Present the products at various exhibitions and festivals, as in addition to popularization of the products’ quality and name, this would attract interest of both, domestic and foreign investors.

In discussing the location of new enterprise attention

was focused on Adjaria and Guria regions, in particular, municipalities of Keda and Chokhatauri. Based on analysis the priority objectives were identified, achievement of which would be beneficial for the local population, as well as for the country as a whole. In addition, this would contribute to introduction of the new fruit processing technologies and their further development.

In the past, the fruits processing factory operated in this region, though it was robbed and destroyed and stopped its operation. The analysis showed that the situation cold be improved with minor efforts and operation of the factory would be beneficial for the population as stable sale of the raw materials is a problem for local farmers up to present. The way and conditions of fruits growing at the farms is of great significance. The enterprise plans to make long-term contracts with the local farmers, including consistent procedures of fruits’ handling, cleaning, harvesting, complying with the

international standards. This would be of benefit for moth, the enterprise and local farmers. Due to the contracts the local farmers would be motivated to increase quantity of raw materials and take care of their quality. As ecologically clean natural fruits would be unconditionally saleable. This would allow the farmers to gain timely and proper remuneration for his hard work and this would contribute to strength and power of greater number of Georgian families.

Products

Range of products to be manufactured by the enterprise includes over 30 items: fruit marmalades and preserves in different packages produced in Keda made of the fruits produced by the population of Chokhatauri and adjacent areas, including:

Apple jamPear jam and preserve;Blueberry jam and preserve;Plum jam and preserve;Quince jam and preserve;Strawberry jam and preserve;Sweet cherry preserve.

All products will be packed in 650, 670, 250, 50 and 30 ml containers.

DISTRIBUTION

KTW has very strong partners engaged in distribution of its key products: in Georgia; Ukraine; Russia; Israel; Baltic countries; Kazakhstan having the trade networks in their countries and demand for canned fruits is quite high there. The same partners would provide sale of the Company’s new products, as entering the trade networks is still a problem not for Georgian but also for many foreign manufacturers, though the demand for ecologically clean products is high in all countries.

To enter domestic and international markets, “Agro Keda” and “AgroChokhatauri”have the strengths, though there are some risk factors as well.

Strengths include: quality—natural, ecologically clean products, free of chemical additives; wide range of products; powerful and respected founder KTW; with wide network of distribution and trade partners.

Risks and weaknesses:“Agro Keda” and “Agro Chokhatauri” is a new company and the consumers do not know its products yet; in addition, in Georgia there are numerous competitors. These risks could be easily dealt with by means of well-thought marketing measures and .

В статье руководителя проекта фруктовых консервов, Дамир Басилаиа, рассказывается о новом направлении в деятельности компании, нацеленном на переработку фруктов, поскольку садоводство в Грузии было развито с давних пор, но не было со-ответствующей производственной базы. В Запад-ной Грузии уже прошли регистрацию две компании: «Агро-Кеда» и «Агро-Чохатаури». Стратегия этих компаний зиждется на налаживании деловых взаи-моотношений с крестьянами, которые на договор-ных условиях будут поставлять фрукты.

Консервированные фрукты расфасовываются в емкостях различного объема и конфигурации, на продажу, как в Грузии, так и за рубежом. Учитывая то обстоятельство, что фрукты выращены в эко-логически чистых природных условиях, этот бизнес является весьма привлекательным, как для постав-щиков продукции в лице крестьян, так и для потре-бителей.

After World War II, in 50-ies of 20th century, industrial

boom began in the world—numerous new enterprises

appeared, new companies were founded, new

trans-national corporations started new fight for re-

distribution of the world market. Epoch of globalization

was at its starting point. In the 60-ies, regarding such

business Bacchanalia, dealing with the problem of

ensuring safety of food production and transportation

was of great significance.

In 1961, for this purpose, the UN Food and Agriculture

Organization, called Codex Alimentarius was

established. In Latin this means “Book of Food”. This is

the collection of internationally recognized standards,

practical manuals and other recommendations dealing

with the food, its production and safety. This Code

is recognized by WHO and WTO. The key reason

for establishment of this Group is protection of the

consumers’ health and implementation of the relevant

measures to ensure safety of trade in food products.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is

one of the standards and recommendations developed

by UN Food and Agriculture Organization. It implies

implementation of systematic preventive measures in

the process of food production, to prevent chemical and

physical hazards, resulting in safety of consumption of

the end products and creating measurable procedures

for risks avoidance. HACCP system is applied at any

stage of food production chain, for raw materials

control, in preparation works, production, packaging,

distribution etc. With time, the standards were

revised, updated to ensure their suitability with the

contemporary requirements and their improvement.

21st century revealed new incentives.

GFSI (The Global Food Safety Initiative) is the incentive წარ

of improvement of the food safety systems intended for

ensuring delivery of safe food products to the world’s

consumers. GFSI provides platform for cooperation

between world’s famous experts, scientists, manufacturers,

food industry companies, international organizations and

governments. This incentive was launched after number

of crises related to food products in 2000 (adulteration,

epidemics, pesticides etc.), resulting in fall of consumers’

trust to the food products. Since then, the experts of all

over the world cooperate in various technical groups to

ensure food safety in accordance with the requirements

of GFSI members. Currently GFSI is focused on covering of

all elements of global food supply chain—from the farms

to the consumers.

Introduction of these international standards require

significant efforts from the Company. ISO 22000:2005

standard is one of the most complete and recent

standards. It includes number of regulatory documents

named ISO 22000 family standards. By introducing of

this food safety system, KTW Ltd. ensures the consumers’

belief that the Company’s products are of high quality,

safe for human health and protected from physical,

microbiological and chemical hazards at all stages of raw

materials’ procurement, production, transportation and

storage.

According to EU food hygiene requirements, FSMS (Food

Safety Measurement System) of KTW studies the critical

points of food safety and takes care about their recording,

proper control and development of the guarantee

measures in accordance with HACCP plan relying upon

Codex Alimentarium requirements and performs actions

provided for by Global Food Safety.

Company’s products, the process of production and

delivery comply with the domestic and international

technical norms, based on which the Company has

developed technological regulations.

Company ensured hazards analysis, identification of

critical control points (CCP/PRP) (Critical Control Points/

Preliminary Risk Programs) and development of control

and monitoring measures to ensure risks control. It also

ensures development of effective tracing systems for

the end products’ batches. All these measures rely upon

preliminary risk programs (PRP), including:

Guarantee of the raw materials’ origin: Hygiene/safety

and quality control;

Procurement of raw materials;

Work environment: hygiene, order and safety;

Planned dislocation of the premises to prevent cross

contamination;

Ensuring proper conditions and microclimate

(temperature, relative humidity of air) in the premises for

ingredients (wine materials) storage;

Regulations for storage of the end products, isolation

from the harmful substances, adequate rotation;

Good hygiene at the bottling shops: presence of easily

cleaned and disinfected floors, walls and equipment

(tools, tables);

According to the process diagram, FSMS group provides

identification of potentially hazardous factors at all stages

of products’ life cycle and conducts their assessment

procedures—conducts dangers analysis, evaluates the

risk and sets the relevant control measures. Goal of

danger analysis is identification of the potential dangers

to the health of consumers in case of weak control.

Dangers analysis, risks assessment and identification of

the control measures serve to three goals:

- Identification of the risks and relevant control measures;

- Analysis may identify the necessary changes to the

processes or products to guarantee further safety of the

products;

- Analysis provides basis for identification of critical

control points.

Once the dangers’ analysis identifies the critical

dangers, with respect of products safety, the allowable

limits regulated by legislation are set. System ensures

maintenance of the relevant records for food safety

management system (protocols, acts, logs and other

evidences of performed activities), documentation, their

withdrawal, storage and utilization.

ISO22000:2005 certification is provided through

international audit ensuring in-depth inspection of all

spheres of the enterprise’s activities—not only products’

manufacturing but also company management, staff

qualifications, social conditions etc. For few months the

representatives of TÜV SÜD ManagementService GmbH.

German international audit firm closely cooperated

with KRW staff. We were glad that the Company shortly

received ISO 22000:2005 certification. This certification is

the achievement of entire KRW staff and at the same time,

it imposes great responsibility on them. This standard

ensures presentation of the holding company and its

products at international level and the assurance that the

products are safe, manufactured in compliance with the

international standards and of high quality and this would

contribute to the Company’s success at different markets.

ISO 22000:2005 certification is not permanent, it requires

regular compliance measures. Therefore, the Company

should take care about maintenance and improvement of

the conditions provided for by the standards.

В статье, говорится о значении междуна-родного стандарта ISO 22000:2005 по обеспе-чению безопасности продукции. В эпоху глоба-лизации и выход на рынки сбыта таких крупных игроков, как транснациональные корпорации, в 1961 году, при ООН была создана группа по сель-скому хозяйству и продукции, Codex Alimentarius, так называемая «Продуктовая книга», при-знанная ВОЗ (Всемирной организацией здраво-охранения) и ВТО (Всемирной торговой органи-зацией), как непреложный кодекс действий при производстве пищевой продукции и её транс-портировке. В соответствии с GFSI (The Global Food Safety Initiative) Всемирной инициативой по безопасности продукции, создан стандарт ISO 22000:2005. KTW , в своей деятельности руководствуется планом, предусмотренным HACCP- (Hazard analysis and critical control points), т.е. общепринятой системой анализа рисков и конторля критических точек. Сертификат ISO 22000:2005 был выдан компании KTW Герман-ской международной аудиторской фирмой TÜV SÜD ManagementService GmbH.

From 30 June to 4 July, the Conference “Argo 2014-Revival of the Legend” dedicated to 30th anniversary of arrival of Tim Severin, famous English traveler and scientist and New Argonauts to Georgia was held.

In 1984, the following members of the KTW Council of Elders participated in the expedition of New Argonauts from Georgian side: Tamaz Tkemaladze, Temur Chkuaseli, Zurab Loladze and Ilia Peradze and 30 years later, they initiated arrangement of this Conference. Mr. Zurab Chkhaidze, general Director of the Company supported the members of Council of Elders from the outset and KTW became one of the key organizers of the Conference.

Arrival of Severin and Argonauts to Georgia, with the galley Argo, built on the basis of the ancient drawings in 1984 was of great significance for the history of Georgia-in particular, the expedition intended to prove that the “Argonautica” by Apollonius of Rhodes was not simply a legend but rather, an actual voyage 33 centuries ago and the stories about power and riches of Colchis Kingdom described in the poem were true. Georgian people are well aware in this story about Jason, Medea and Aeetes and arrival of the New Argonauts in 1984 was indeed great event for the people. After their arrival to overcrowded Poti Port, further, at a time of towing of Argo to Vani, the banks of Rioni River were full of people, irrespective of rainy weather. Several times a day, the locals sailed to Argo with their boats, delivering the baskets full of the fruits, bread and wine, causing delight of the guests. After completion of this voyage the scientists all over the world have been writing about significance of the results of expedition for long time.

Anniversary Conference of 2014 was intended to recall the history of our country to Georgian people, invite the New Argonauts and show them new Georgia. Irrespective of overloaded schedule, Tim Severin and 10 New Argonauts agreed to visit Georgia. It turned out that for 30 years they have not seen one another and even have not communicated with one another. One should see, how they were glad to see each other here, in Tbilisi—the city, where they met after three decades.

Company Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking dedicated one day to the Argonauts: on 2 July, in the morning, the guests visited Patardzeuli winery and viewed the enterprise and technological lines with great attention. Among the Argonauts there were the Irishmen, interested in the technologies of brandy production, aging of the alcohol

and bottling lines. After visit to the wine factory, the guests visited the new shop “Wine Way”, built into the wall of the factory, especially for the tourists travelling along the Kakheti highway. The shop offered wide range of products

to the buyers. Further, Mr. Zurab Chkhaidze, General Director, invited the guests to the testing hall and presented “Saperavi” wine bottled specially for the Argonauts, with the images of Tim Severin and Golden Fleece, was met with great delight. Numerous presents and souvenirs were offered to the guests and they left the factory territory. Further they visited Sighnaghi, to see the paintings by Pirosmani and Gudiashvili at the museum. After Sighnaghi, the guests visited Veranda in Velistsikhe.

Velistsikhe Veranda charmed the guests with its versatility: from huge clay vessels - kvevris to wine presses, various tools. The guests viewed everything with great interest. They were delighted like children with various traditional winemaking tools and wine cellar equipment. They watched with great interest how traditional Georgian bread was baked, making roast meat - shashliks and churchkhelas, and they participated in it as well. Finally, they enjoyed the process of making Chacha in the “Zaoti” of Veranda.

Georgian table and real feast was arranged at Veranda—with the toasts and Kakhetian polyphonies songs. To feel true Georgian charm, hosts gave Georgian wine in the jugs and treats to the guests. Georgian-English-Irish songs could be heard from the bus up to Tbilisi.

В статье члена Совете Старейшин, Руководите-ля программы «Арго 2014», участника экспедиции «Арго 1984», Ильи Перадзе, речь идет о том, что в 1984 году, новые аргонавты, о во главе с известным путешествен-ником, ученым о и писателем, Тимом Северины, повто-рили маршрут Язона на двадцативесельной галере за золотым руном, в подтверждение того, что события, описанные в поэме Аполлония Родосского «Аргонавтика», были реальностью, и Царство колхов во главе с Айэтом, в те времена, представляла собой сильное государство. С целью возрождения страниц истории Грузии, с 30 июня по 4 июля, компания KTW провела международную конфе-ренцию «Арго 2014 - Возрождение легенды». Спустя 30 лет грузинские аргонавты встретились со своими зару-бежными коллегами. Гости посетили винный завод в Па-тардзеули, магазин «Винная дорога» дегустационный зал и турцентр. Генеральный директор компании, Зураб Чха-идзе передал в дар гостям бутылки «Саперави» с изобра-жением Тима Северина и золотого руна и другие подарки. Потом гости посетили музей в Сигнахи, и в заключение осмотрели Велисцихскую веранду, где после ознакомления с достопримечательностями Веранды, все завершилось традиционным грузинским застольем.

Magazine “Saguramo” have been issued in 2000-2005. It attracted public attention from the outset and was regarded as one of the best publications. This attention was evidenced by the presentation arranged by the incentive of Murman Lebanidze and Tariel Chanturia at Rustaveli Society, attended by outstanding intellectual society and they not only attended this event by actively participated in it.

Magazine “Saguramo” published for the first time the translations of such masterpieces of world literature as “Joseph and His Brothers” by Thomas Mann, “Karamazov Brothers” by Dostoevsky. The magazine opened discussion about territorial arrangement of our country. Briefly, many good things were discussed by the Magazine but, unfortunately, “Saguramo” was closed.

And now, in 2014, the Magazine was restored. It was restored to the joy of the lovers of true literature and humanity thought and all this came true due to support from the Company “Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking” and personally, Mr. Zurab Chkhaidze.

The Magazine has its own niche in Georgian periodical literature and this is orientation towards classic works. We attempt to make happy the tasty readers. Our writing lacks versatility of critical thoughts and high quality translations. Therefore, we have chosen the way, we believe is the way of true literature.

Four issues of the Magazine are already published. Magazine is issued once per two months, containing 200

pages of A4 format. If someone remembers old “Tsiskari”, “Mnatobi” and “Saunje”, they were of similar size. Shortly, it is a quite solid publication. Our magazine does not publish original poems and prose and this distinguishes “Saguramo” from the other literary periodicals. We regard that numerous newspapers and magazines serve to original Georgian literature and they do their job well. Today the literary life is very extensive; many books are published, though one good book is accompanied by ten doubtful ones. Situation is particularly heavy in the sphere of translations. People think that translation is an easy work, disregarding that in addition to perfect knowledge of two languages—the source and target ones, the skills are required to do the job. There are rare persons with all three items of this list and therefore, it is necessary to find such people and orient towards them. This is about translation.

Georgian literature needs re-reading and no one disputes this. There were numerous attempts of such re-reading, both, successful and not. “Saguramo’s” objective is stimulation of this process, present our literature in the manner it deserves, prevent the criticism of nihilists and protect for dithyrambs’ lovers. Georgian literature is a worthy literature, with its perfect creative pieces and therefore, it requires in-depth, unbiased study.

Today our literature is spontaneous, its assessment is at the level of toasts—I imply bad toasts and, as Ilia used to say, it is similar to “Kizilbash” or grovel. Such trends are prevented in our Magazine.

Particular attention will be paid to study of the works of Ilia Chavchavadze. Magazine will focus on miraculous 19th century in our literature. Of course, this does not mean that there will be any chronological restrictions but literature of this and following centuries is studied in the most biased manner.

Our archives are full of interesting materials, requiring many years for publication. We make efforts to offer to our readers the most significant ones containing more information about our past.

Letter by Amiran Gomarteli deals with the covered literary polemics between Ilia Chavchavadze and Akaki Tsereteli. Emzar Kvitaishvili offers analysis of Ilia’s “Ghost” and letter by Jaclin Siradze offers innovative vision of novel by Chabua Amirejibi, “George the Brilliant”. In four issues of Saguramo the readers will find letters by Rostom Chkheidze, Archimandrite Ilarion, Levan Bregadze, Ivane Amirkhanashvili, Rezo Siradze, George Alibegashvili, Bachana Bregvadze, Temur Gabunia and others about Vakhtang Chelidze, Erekle Tatishvili, Alexander Sajaia, Galaktioni, Aristotle, Baratashvili, Grishashvili, Salinger etc.

For the first time the translations of works by Eugene Ionesco, Martin Heidegger, Oscar Wilde, Grigol Robakidze, Julian Barnes, Alfred Hitchcock, Iosef Brodsky, Dimitri Likhachov and others, as well as the letters about them.

All well-known writers, scientists and translators cooperate with Magazine “Saguramo”. We offered to our readers many interesting materials and we have to publish numerous literary monuments, first published for Georgian readers. Briefly, by supporting of “Saguramo” revival, “Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking” has accomplished indeed great national work.

В статье главного редактора журнала «Сагурамо», Андро Бедукадзе «Неразрывность традиции», рассказы-вается о жизнедеятельности журнала в 2000-2005 годы, и его участии в литературной жизни Грузии.

В 2014 году, журнал, прекративший свое существо-вание в 2005 году, по инициативе Генерального директо-ра компании KTW, Зураба Чхаидзе, возродил издание, как классиков грузинской литературы, так и современных писателей. Большое внимание уделяется и переводной литературе, поскольку литературные произведения нуждаются в новом прочтении. Журнал выходит дважды в месяц и насчитывает до 200 страниц в формате А-4. В тематике журнала лидирующее место занимает творче-ство Ильи Чавчавадзе. Инициатива компании KTW слу-жит благородному делу повышения культурного уровня, столь важного для грядущих поколений.

The territory of Saguramo was located within the limits of historical Kherki, and, as a great geographer Vakhushti tells, it was well known with its rare soil and water, climate, forest, abundance of fruits and vegetables, large areas of arable lands, vineyards with multiple vine varieties. That’s why this place was densely settled from the ancient time. Here we should add that in late 15th century Alexander the 1st, the King of Kakheti granted these lands to Guram Zevdginidze and his brothers. The “Saguramo” takes its origin from his name. The Guramishvili’s principality was created after one century.

David Guramishvili was born in 1705, in Saguramo. He was 12 years old, when in Saguramo (may be even in David’s father’s family) two kings – Vakhtang the VI of Kartli and David the II of Kakheti met each other. The reason of their meeting was desire, to stop the unending raids of the Lezghins in Kartli and Kakheti. In 1750 Erekle the II, at age of 30, inflicted a crushing defeat to Char-Dagestanis. Many other things have happened in Saguramo, but, let’s pay attention to 1863 – this year Ilia Chavchavadze married Olgha Guramishvili, daughter of Thadeoz, he inherited from her father an important part of a great estate.

In the surroundings there are plenty of historical-architectural buildings, crowned with the Monastery of Zedazeni. We shall mention only one sample of religious architecture – Saguramo’s Monastery Complex of St. George of Kasuri, established in the 7th century by Tata of Stephantsminda, the disciple of the Assyrian Father Johan of Zedazeni.

According to a legend, the Holy Father Johan of Zedazeni for initially was buried in this church. “... They brought his body with great respect and care to the monastery built by Tata and buried his holy remains there.” Afterwards the Saint was buried in the Zedazeni Cathedral.

The St. George’s cathedral was symbolically considered as the border point between Kartli and Kakheti. At a time of never-ending wars and invasions, a peasant of Saguramo took care of vine, symbol of eternal life of Georgian people, like his own child. Though, often they have seen such a terrible picture, as D. Guramishvili of “Gorisubani” wrote:

Woe to that day! The Ottomans were spilling blood of innocent people.

If they met a working man, beggar or monk, beheaded them; If the basket was not topped, they threw him under nine

carts, The bodies had no buriers, foxes and jackals crunched them! In that period, when the enemy was devastating churches

in Guramiamt Kari (as they called it earlier), the population baptized little children from Saguramo in the wine cellars. And there were plenty of wine cellars in the densely populated country, rich with vineyards.

Ilia Chavchavadze’s father-in-law built a wine cellar of really model architecture for the Eastern Georgia in late 18th century. The wine cellar’s parameters, its interior and exterior, ethnologic illustrations can be used as a reliable evidence of high level of viticulture and winery in the 1790-ies in Georgia, and particularly in Saguramo. In Thadeoz Guramishvili’s wine cellar there are 18 huge kvevris for wine. During vintage they were pressing the main local grape varieties: Chinuri, Goruli Mtsvane, Takveri, Shavkapito... with wine-press (there are three wine-presses the wine-cellar) in separate kvevris. Further, fermenting of sweet wine, separating of grape pomace, and all the processes, necessary for production of perfect wine were performed there.

Ilia Chavchavadze chose a place for a vineyard to his liking and built his dwelling nearby. This is really a classical model for viticulture and winery. The vine is planted on an inclined slope, the spring water flows down and feeds vine with life-giving

stream. A great master of viticulture and winery, our Saint Ilia the Righteous was pressing grape in Thadeoz’s wine cellar, then took it to his wine cellar and kept in large oak barrels.

For a long time, no guest has visited Thadeoz’s wine cellar – neither Georgian, nor – foreigner. For the last time 35 years ago here was arranged Gogi Dolidze’s wedding ... Further, in the joyless days of our country, the territory of the wine cellar was covered with thicket of thorn. The cattle of local population have spoiled the surroundings. The wine kvevris were filled with soil. Some ethnologic things have disappeared. The walls were covered with moss. Nowhere was seen the owner!

From 2003 Mr. Zurab Chkhaidze, the KTW President and all its team became the friends and protectors of Ilia Chavchavadze’s house museum. It will take long to list, what was happening here during 10 years on each 12th September (the day of Ilia’s murder!), what representation was gathering here and how important was this day for our homeland, Georgia. The proposition of the KTW Council of Elders – “About Maintenance and Care of Thadeoz Guramishvili’s Wine Cellar and the Territory of the House Museum” was a subject of debates in the office of the Company during a long time. Mister Andro Bedukidze, - the Director of the house museum of I. Chavchavadze and all the team of the museum were supporting the idea. Soon KTW submitted the project of restoration of Guramishvili wine cellar to the Ministry of Culture for approval. For a long time we were waiting for answer of the Ministry. At last, the request was solved positively... Thadeoz’s wine cellar was saved. The wine cellar, according to Zurab Chkhaidze’s project, should become a sample wine cellar for showing to the foreign tourists... There were moments of odd hindering, but, thanks to god, everything straightened out, and the Saguramo inhabitants, living in neighborhood of the wine cellar, cannot believe that it is possible to do so many things during half a year inside or outside the wine cellar...

It is noteworthy that KTW became a custodian and owner of the lands of Ilia’s house museum for 49 years! 10 hectares of the land are already plowed and cultivated, this plot will be full of the grafts of Goruli Mtsvane and after three-four years will be celebrated such a vintage, as Ilia Chavchavadze, David Guramishvili and this holy Georgian land deserve. The

Company of “Kakhetian Traditional Winery” will be enriched with new wine of three or four denomination. We, the members of the Council of Elders, are impatiently waiting for this day.

Тамаз Ткемаладзе, Председатель Совета Старейшин KTW, Заслуженный журналист Грузии, в статье «Чавчавад-зевские виноградники и марани Тадеоза Гурамишкили», пи-шет о том, что еще в XV- веке, Кахетинский царь, Александр Первый передал в наследство виноградники Сагурамо, Гура-му Зевдгенидзе и его братьям. С тех пор и носят эти места название «Сагурамо». Здесь, в исторически знаменательных местах, в 1705 году родился великий грузинский поэт, Давид Гурамишвили. Здесь, в 1853 году, Илья Чавчавадзе женился на Ольге Тадеозовне Гурамишвили. В их имении сохранился, построенный еще в XVIII веке, древний марани, в котором после разорения захватчиками святых мест и церквей, мест-ные жители все еще крестили детей. По инициативе Гене-рального директора Компании KTW, Зураба Чхаидзе, взявшем опеку над Домом-музеем Ильи Чавчавадзе, был восстановлен весь комплекс, бывший когда-то образцом высокого уровня культуры виноградарства и виноделия в Грузии.

Secular traditions of winery, Georgian wine-cellars, Georgian technology of winemaking and resurrection of forgotten vine species – now all of this is commenced in the High Mountainous, Adjara as well.

One more project of KTW, providing construction of a wine factory in Keda, will completely relieve the local winegrowers from the problem of harvest storage in the nearest future.

In Keda factory the wine will be produced using both, traditional and modern technologies. The Company will invest one million US dollars in the construction of the enterprise. The investor plans to build in Keda a fruit processing factory as well.

In his interview to “Guria News”, Zurab Chkhaidze-Askaneli, founder of the KTW-Group, says that the new enterprise will be quite a big step forward from the point of view of economic development of the Municipality, and, the most important thing is that it will provide solutions to the numerous problems of the population:

Zurab Chkhaidze: “The new enterprise will provide procurement and processing of different grape varieties. We shall also extensively support cultivation of as much vineyards in High Mountainous Adjara as possible, to meet our demand”.

One more event was a part of this project – upon the initiative of the KTW group the nurslings of rare vine varieties were distributed in High Mountainous Adjara.

In Keda the farmers got the vine nurslings free of any charge. The Minister of Agriculture of Adjara offered to the population of Keda, Mersisi and village Oktomberi about 2000 nurslings. The activity was conducted with the incentive and funding of Zurab Chkhaidze, general Director of KTW-Group.

According to Zurab Chkhaidze, at the first stage in all villages of the Municipality about 8 500 nurslings of “Chkhaveri” were distributed; they will offer the harvest to the Keda Wine Factory of Keda, to be completed in few months.

“This year we decided to distribute to the agro farmers rare, forgotten vine varieties, like Chkhaveri, Tsolikauri, Butko and several others... We hope that in three years we shall have both, vintage and good wine. It’s symbolic that we are building a factory here, to be launched in autumn and will release the local winegrowers from all their problems, they have today”.

Zaur Putkaradze, the Minister of Agriculture of Adjara also attended the distribution of the nurslings: “You know that in the Municipality of Keda wine factory will be launched soon, and a factory, of course, needs raw materials. The winegrowers of Keda got free Chkhaveri vine nurslings. This will not be a one-time activity and it will continue in the future”, - noted Zaur Putkaradze.

According to the population, there was a great demand for the nurslings, and they are very grateful to KTW for taking their desire into account.

“In general, we, the KTW group, know what we want, what the winegrowers need, and what kind product we should create for the future. We are successfully selling our products in several countries. The main thing is that there is no more fear of investing and now we have to take care for creating of as much enterprises in Guria-Adjara and entire western region as possible and employ the locals. In any business we start, the main principle is only high quality products! We are faithful to this principle of the demand of the time. So will we continue in the future...” – Says Zurab Chkhaidze.

Генеральный директор Компании KTW, Зураб Чхаид-зе, в беседе с «Гурия Ньюс» заявил о том, что начато воз-рождение традиции древнего виноградарства в Аджарии, для чего строится винный завод в Селе Кеда, пуск кото-рого планируется уже этой осенью. Инвестиции состав-ляют около 1млн. долларов. Перерабатываться будет почти весь урожай местных виноградарей, причем как по традиционной, так и по современной технологии.

Мы возрождаем полузабытую культуру виноградар-ства и, с этой целью местному населению безвозмездно передано около 8 500 саженцев таких ценных сортов лозы, как «Чхавери», «Цоликаури» и др. Планируется так-же строительство завода по консервированию фруктов, что также благотворно отразится на социальном поло-жении региона.

In recent years particular attention is paid to development

of tourism in Georgia. In world tourism relatively narrow

sector – wine tourism – emerged. It attracts the tourists from

different countries, interested in winery, to the well-known

places of winery. More and more tourists arrive every year

to Georgia, a country, recognized as the country of origin of

wine. More than 7 years ago KTW paid attention to this trend

in the world tourism, and turned his ancestors’ wine cellar in

Velistsikhe, in the heart of Kakheti, motherland of the founder

of the company, into an attractive tourist place. It is called the

“Velistsikhe Veranda”.

“Welcome”, “A guest is sent by God” – receive the hosts

of the“Velistsikhe Veranda” their guests according to ancient

Georgian tradition. Some kinds of typical Georgian family

household are gathered in this place.

In these premises the main is his ancestor’s –

Grandpa Gigusha’s wine cellar – “Old Kakheti”. In

the soil of the cellar 19 wine vessels of different sizes

are buried to keep about 39 tons of unique kvevri

wine. Some of them may contain about 5000 liters of

wine. 2 vessels are always reserved for the guests. In the

wine cellar there are displayed tools necessary for caring and

keeping of wine: “Satsnakheli” (wine press) carved in whole

tree, in which the grape was pressed; “Sartskhi” (washer) – to

wash the vesseks; “Orshimo” (ladle) – for taking wine out of

the vessels; “Orkapi” (fork) – for stirring. Here are different

kinds of tableware made of clay: jug, “chinchila”, bowl etc.

Numerous people visit the “Velistsikhe Veranda” every year

and the hosts usually show them this wonderful wine cellar

with pleasure. Georgian fireplace, tabla – a low table, three

leg-chairs, wine kvevri opened for a guest – all of these have

a particular charm. Hosting a guest in the ancient wine cellar

was considered as a great respect. Here a guest can see:

dip in it halves of the walnuts, threaded onto the cotton. The

result is sweet and soft churchkhela, then they hang it to dry.

The Patriarch of Georgia canonized Mtskheta as a holy town. The believers call it the second Jerusalem as well. Here, at the place for tourists built the KTW a palace for wine glorifying– a very beautiful four-storied building “Georgian Wine Chamber”.

The “Georgian Wine Chamber” is one year old. During this time it hosted numerous Georgian and foreign guests and due to its outstanding location, wonderful interior, design and calm situation it stayed in their memories.

The Chamber is not only a restaurant, it offers a variety of services to its guests.

In the basement of the Chamber the guests can see the so called “Marani of King Mirian”, having historical significance. Here are placed the analogues of the throne for king Mirian’s and Queen Nana’s rest, and an icon, where the guests can make commemorative photoes.

Here is a wine cellar (marani) with the large clay vessels for wine and wine testing hall, offering to the guests wide choice of wines—they can taste about 29 sorts of wine: those of premium class and from clay vessel; white; dry; semi-duce; red; sparkling etc.

In the hall is also placed the company’s brand store. After tasting the wine guests can buy the wines they liked, and

also buy brandies of different aging and chacha for a

reasonable price. We offer also great choice

of brandies, chachas and wines for collection in special handmade pottery of particular design.

On the first floor the ”Georgian Wine

Chamber” offers tourists a particular show – tasting

CHAVCHAVADZE VINEYARD AND GURAMISHVILI WINE CELLAR IN SAGURAMO

As Mtskheta is a holy town for Georgians, the

name of Ilia Chavchavadze is also holly for them. For already 10

years, KTW has become guardian of Ilia Chavchavadze’s house

museum and every 12 September, the memorial day of St. Ilia

the Righteous, celebrates “Iliaoba”. Now KTW has widened

its field of charity – the company has begun restoration and

reconstruction of the Chavchavadzes’ vineyards and Tadeoz

Guramishvili’s ruined family wine cellar. At the end of the

year the guests will have the opportunity to see renewed

Chavchavadzes’ vineyard, Guramishvilis’ wine cellar and a

new building of the Museum of Winemaking, where the old

and new styles are in harmony with one

another.

В статье Туристические обьекты «Кахетинского традиционного виноделия», говорится о том, что, учи-тывая усилившийся поток туристов, интересующихся многовековой традицией виноделия в Грузии, компания создала несколько комплексных турцентров в разных ре-гионах страны. Привлекательным объектом для тури-стов является «Велисцихская веранда». Достопримеча-тельностью этого объекта является старинный марани «Древний Кахети», принадлежавший когда-то предку основателя компании, Зураба Чхаидзе. Здесь туристам предлагают осмотреть: винный погреб, выбрать себе по вкусу вино в дегустационном зале, а потом приобрести его в магазине-салоне. Здесь же туристы могут наблю-дать за процессом перегонки Грузинской чачи и ознако-мится с особенностями грузинского застолья и отве-дать, как национальную, так и европейскую кухню.

Аналогичные комплексы для туристов компания создала в древней столице Грузии, Мцхета, где гостей встречает «Грузинская винная палата», на винном за-воде компании в селе Патардзеули Сагареджойского района (Кахетия), на родине Ильи Чавчавадзе и Давида Гурамишвили, в Сагурамо, а также в Аскана (Гурия), в Ахалцихе, Душети и т.д.

In the recent years KTW developed very rapidly and in 2013 it commenced construction of the new enterprises in various regions of Georgia. Vibrant competition at wine market and new trends never allows peaceful development. Challenges of the time should be met. In addition, loss of the market of Russia, one of the largest partner caused necessity of seeking the other foreign markets and entry to these markets requires great efforts of the Company.

If at the initial stage of development intensification of production was required, now the Company faces the problem of capacities’ development. KTW responded to this challenge by expansion of geography and installing of the new capacities. Flow of the ecotourism fans grow from year to year all over the world. Tourists of various countries establish the clubs, travel to the places famous with their wines, and arrange the wine testing events. Georgia, with its ancient winemaking traditions becomes increasingly popular. At the World Winery Exhibition in London, one of the halls is dedicated to the ancient samples of winemaking discovered in Georgia with the name “Georgia the Cradle of Wine”. UNESCO included Kakhetian technology of wine making into the list of world cultural heritage. Hence, more and more wine lover tourists come to Georgia. KTW caught up this trend and opened several significant sites, which soon became the favorite places of the tourists.

In the age of electronic communication, internet is the fastest and the most significant means for information distribution. Web page of the company should clearly state the Company’s functions, at the same time attracting the viewers. Kakhetian Traditional Winemaking had the web site ktw.ge but it was not able to respond to the Company’s needs any more. KTW, comprising of a single enterprise in the past now developed into the group of enterprises, with its own hierarchy. Its enterprises are located in different regions of Georgia. This wide range could be seen from the list: the central office in Tbilisi, wine factories in: Patardzeuli, Velistsikhe, Keda; Wine Chamber in Mtskheta; Veranda in Velistsikhe; Chavchavadze vineyards in Saguramo and Guramishvili Wine Cellar; tourist center, wine factory and complex “”Royal Askana” in Guria, fruits processing and canning enterprises in Guria and Adjara, touristic complex “Heart of Aragvi” in Dusheti.

With growth of number of enterprises, their management becomes more complex, though using the state-of-art electronic and mobile communication means and new management methods, KTW managers successfully deal with these challenges.

For this purpose the new web site of the Company is developed: ktwgroup.ge. It responds to the current requirements and its structure allows perfect presentation of the Company’s future development.

Туристический поток в Грузию с каждым годом уве-личивается. Многие туристы желают ознакомиться с многовековой культурой виноградарства и виноделия. Ведь недаром, на одном из залов Лондонского музея вина «Винотера», красуется надпись: «Грузия - колыбель ви-ноделия», а UNESKO внесла традиционный кахетинский метод приготовления вина, в сокровищницу мирового на-следия. С целью расширения географии и конкурентоспо-собности компания особое внимание уделила расширению производственной базы и созданию новых мощностей и турцентров на перекрестке ключевых маршрутов. Те-перь в Компанию входят объекты расположенные по всей Грузии. До сегодняшнего дня в интернете компания была представлена одним сайтом ktw.ge которая уже не отве-чает требованиям усложненной структуры. С этой це-лью компания создала новый сайт: ktwgrоup.ge, который позволяет получить полное представление о деятельно-сти компании и её отдельных составляющих.

Company “Bel” is successful operator of Ukraine, engaged in the sphere of import of alcohol beverages and greenhouse products. The enterprise’s assets include the partnerships with 20 strategic companies in 25 regions of Ukraine, with ‘500 types of products. For 12 years the Company is an exclusive distributor of KTW. According to the results for year 2013, “Bel” is market leader in the sphere of imported brandies, with 43% market share, relying on only one brand— “Old Kakheti”.

“Bel” works for the future and with respect to the activities of its own and its partners.

We started cooperation with KTW in February 2005 and placed the first order in March, and this became the token of our further cooperation. Sales annual growth was 70-100% and for the recent years brandy “Old Kakheti” is the leader of sales. In addition, according to survey by marketing magazine Akciz AZ, “Old Kakheti” was nominated as the best brand of the year and we are proud of these results. Though, in the recent period, because of the well known reasons, regarding the processes ongoing in Ukraine, reduction of sales was observed.

KTW is a stable and reliable partner, making prompt decisions and providing prompt response to the market changes. These capacities allow the company maintaining its leading positions, they say, that the rapid ones take over the slower ones.Dmitri Kirilenko

We got familiar with KTW products for the first time, when our company became the official distributor of brand “Old Kakheti” and this notable event occurred in 2005. This brand is undoubted leader among imported brandies in Ukraine. In April, this year, our company became exclusive importer and distributor of one more brand—”Iveria”. Based on the first feedbacks from our customers, we can readily state that this brandy will take its deserved place among Georgian alcohol beverages.

Figures show that KTW products maintain leading positions among the other similar imported products with respect of sales’ dynamics, from year to year.

KTW is a dynamic, innovative partner with ambitious development program, prominent leader’s properties offering products of level of the world’s best brands.

One should receive something and give something in the partnership relation: attention, desire, love. We would like to conduct effective and profitable business with our partners for success of our companies for many years.

brands and this determined further strategy of the Company’s development. Company is at the stage of dynamic development, implying growth of the market share and turnover, as well as increasing presentation of the alcohol drinks at Russian market.

Our company successfully cooperated with KTW before banning of Georgian products. In that period we had warm, partnership relations and we restored these relations after removal of the ban. Russian consumers like “Old Kakheti” brandy.

From month to month, the sales’ dynamics is positive. Currently brand “Old Kakheti” is presented in all large federal networks, like: Arshan, Lenta, OK, Metro, Dixie etc. Russian consumers appreciated high quality of “Old Kakheti” and therefore, we are sure that this brand is very promising one for Russia.

In the process of cooperation with KTW, we have developed mutually beneficial collaborative relations based on trust and respect. Cooperation with KTW is very comfortable and we hope that we shall have opportunity to continue this effective partnership in the future.

We could tell a lot about Georgian viticulture. This is the issue of great interest, particularly in recent years, when interest towards Georgian traditional winemaking increased significantly due to the fact that UNESCO has included Georgian winemaking technology into the World Heritage List. To satisfy this interest, at least partly, I would like to offer to your attention marani, i.e. the economic complex for traditional winemaking, including grapes pressing, sweet juice fermentation, making of wine, taking care of it and its storage.

In Georgia there are two types of marani—covered marani and open marani. The former is widespread in Eastern Georgia and the latter—in Western Georgia. Development of these types of marani was conditioned by climatic conditions: Dry climate of Eastern Georgia required protection of wine from heat and placing of the wine vessels in the covered building, while in the humid climate of Western Georgia the vessels were placed before the half open marani, in open air, on “churistavi” covered with wood. Classic signs, of the covered marani were found in central provinces of Eastern Georgia, in Kartli and Kakheti. This is the building built of stones and lime mortar, separated from the dwelling area or placed within its complex. Typical peasant marani is a building of 5 m x 10 m area, with the central roofing supported by central column. Marani is built with lime mortar, with the arrow-shaped niches in the walls, where the winemaking tools are placed. On the central wall of marani there is attached the wine press (maybe made of stones and lime mortar or the wooden one), vessels for wine pressing, allowing processing of 3-4 tons of grapes at a time. Some wine presses are divided—to press white and red grapes. Grape juice flows into the large clay or stone vessel (taghari // isatna) under the pipe of press (“induri”) and from this vessel it is distributed into the large clay vessels (churi). In some cases, the wooden pipe is attached to the press pipe “induri”, allowing flowing of the grape juice directly to the clay vessels buried in the soil. In the covered marani, all churis are located within the building.

In the marani of classic type there is an appliance for pomace removal “sakajavi”. This is a technically quite well-developed mechanism for pressing out of the liquid from the pomace by means of the weight.

Central roofing of the Eastern-Georgian marani is supported by the central column. This element is from classical Georgian dwelling—the hall. Generally, the central column in Georgian house is a main column supporting to roof, i.e. crown and genetically it is associated with the cult of wood. Various religious rituals were executed there and it was the object of idolization. Transfer of the central column, as the object of rituals to marani clearly shows the sacral nature of attitude towards this building. This is expressed not only in the form but also in the tradition of conducting of various rituals in marani.

Western-Georgian marani is an open structure with three walls with the churis in open place in front of it. Wine press, pomace press and various inventories are placed in the covered area and the churis, as mentioned earlier—in front of the building, on so called “churistavi”. Entire complex is fenced with various materials (mostly the wood and whips) and well protected.

Both types of marani, regarding the climatic conditions, are made based on the basic principles that the temperature required for wine fermentation, as well as storage should be maintained. All appliances and tools required for wine production are placed in marani.

Necessary element of marani in Kartli is the clay kvevri. There are several centers manufacturing the kvevris. Currently, both, in Eastern and Western Georgia, when burying into the soil, the kvevris are covered with the lime mortar layer. It is placed into the deep pit so that its opening does not extend

over the soil level. It is covered with the wooden cover (badimi), sealed with well mixed clay and soil and fine soil is spread over it. Wine stored in this way maintains the uniform temperature, and at the same time it is covered and protected, from the undesirable people. For opening, the soil cover is removed by means of the mattock to open the clay seal over the vessel. The soil is cut along the circle around the opening by means of the wooden spade and wooden badimis are cleaned. Further the wooden cover is removed and wine is taken out by means of orshimo and poured into the other vessels.

Georgian traditional winemaking implies making wine on pomace. To conduct this process in a correct way, most part of the harvest is gathered in the largest kvevri(s).

In Eastern Georgia pomace and grape juice are placed together in the kvevri, while in Western Georgia quantities of juice and pomace must be in certain proportion. The order of adding and quantity of pomace is determined by grapes variety, climate and empirical experience of the winemaker, together with his taste. After fermentation, wine must be left with pomace for certain time, depending on grape variety, from two weeks to five months.

Once the wine fermentation process is completed and it acquires proper strength, desired aroma and other significant components, it is removed from the pomace and placed in smaller vessels. Wine is permanently moved from one vessel to the other to ensure proper purification of the wine and all other properties expected by the winemaker from one or another grape variety.

Significance of marani is presented very clearly in folk beliefs and customs and cult practices, where the actions conducted for the purpose of ensuring high yields and welfare were at central place. Among them, the most widespread and universal ritual for marani was season’s greetings—at that time, the head of the family, with the imitation of eternal tree—chichilaki and such attributes as pig head, breads baked in the form of various farming tools and certain parts of the animals, sweets and fruits on the tray. He greeted New Year, opened the wine vessel, tasted wine with his family members, blessed and begged Lord to give them welfare.

Ethnographic data confirm the facts of child’s baptizing and wedding ceremonies. There was a place in marani where the sacral drink, “zedashe” was stored for the saints and Lord. Age of viticulture is evidenced by the custom of wine sacrificing and it was widespread in Georgia from ancient time. According to Georgian world view, the vine and its fruit were regarded as the object of worshiping and enlivening of humans. Such attitude can be seen very clearly in the ritual of wine sacrificing.

The wine made of the best grapes was chosen as zedashe wine and it was kept in the separate kvevri. People used to pray and beg something and had it after relevant ritual, on the holiday, at a time of ritual feast. Rule of donating of zedashe was established for many centuries and it was conditioned by religious beliefs—in particular, it provided to gain good graces of gods for good yields, health, welfare, fertility and other practical needs.

According to the people’s beliefs, wine was one of the most significant products and its sacrificing would inevitably influence the fate of the donator. This point, as such, ensured high quality of the wine and great respect to it.

In Georgia, the role of men in taking care of the wine and vine is particularly prominent and this clearly shows that these were the males, who headed development of viticulture and winemaking in the ancient period.

В статье члена Совета Старейшин, профессо-ра Эльдара Надирадзе, «Грузинский марани» рассказывается об одном из ключевых звеньев в производстве вина, – марани, – который на-считывает многовековую историю. В Грузии используются два типа марани – открытый и закрытый. Первый применяется в Западной Грузии, поскольку там влажный климат и квеври зарывали наполовину под сенью дере-ва, а второй – в Восточной Грузии, где климат сухой и квеври зарывали полностью в землю, в закрытом помещении, предохраняя процесс приготовления и хранения вина от климати-ческих эксцессов. У стены, в марани стоит «Сацнкхели», емкость в виде ванны, в кото-рой происходит выжимка винограда. Иногда он разделяется перегородкой: для белого и красного вина. В марани находится и весь ин-вентарь, необходимый при технологическом процессе. С давних пор марани строились с учетом обеспечения благоприятных условий, для поддержания температурных условии, при брожении и сохранении виноматериала. Квеври где храниться вино изготовлен из выж-женной глины, которая имеет ряд целебных свойств и придает вину своеобразный вкус. С древнейших времен в Грузии, вино использо-валось при ритуальных обрядах, ему придава-лось сакральное значение. TH

It is well known that Georgia is the native land of viticulture. Each of its regions has its wine traditions, even culture of vine cultivation and wine making. Meskheti is not exclusion in this respect—people grew vine both, creeping on the trees and in the vineyards.

Vine creeping on the trees was particularly popular and it is maintained up to present as in the period of Ottoman attacks the vineyards were particularly vulnerable. Wine was used for both, secular and religious purposes.

Neither Georgian wedding and nor mourning rituals were arranged without wine. Since 16th century, when Meskheti was under the rule of Ottomans, wine was prohibited, as unacceptable for Moslem religion, because of this the vineyard

areas reduced in Meskheti.

The vineyards were arranged mostly on the terraces. Terraces were characteristic for the high mountain regions of Meskheti from ancient time. Ottoman Empire has plaid particular role in elimination of the vineyards on the terraces. Vines were cut and the fruit orchards were planted instead: apples, mulberries, pears etc. Unfortunately, this process was irreversible. Cutting of the forests, vineyards and orchards, driving out of the population and forced conversion to Moslem religion created great barriers to development of agricultural crops, orchards and vineyards” (Sh. Tsikvadze).

Before Ottomans, the other invaders also threatened the vineyards. Attitude of Tamerlane and Shah Abbas towards the vineyards—both of them ordered their armies to ravage the vineyards. The enemies were well aware that by cutting of the vineyards they eliminated wine culture for Georgian people and wine was the main sign of national identity for us.

In 1959, Ottoman officer wrote in the tax document titled Great Log of Georgian Region: “the vineyard of Dedisimedi and monk Matskevruli, now owned by Kali-beg son of Haidar Pasha, according to the court order, provides 50 Akhcha per year as the rent.”

“Vineyard of Dedisimedi, 1 parcel with 2 sections and vineyard of Marskevruli—1 parcel with 2 sections, now owned by Zakim Elia provides 61 akhcha per year.” Akhcha was Ottoman money.

These citations clearly show that the vineyards were transferred from their Georgian owners to the Ottomans or Georgian renegade feudal lords, who have changed their names immediately, to maintain their position at the Pasha’s court. Matskevruli monks (the monks of Atskuri were implied. In Atskuri there was the largest cathedral of one of the largest episcopates of Georgia) and the vineyard belonging of Dedisimedi, the family name of the Jakelis was transferred to the ownership of Kali-beg son of Haidar Pasha and Zakimi Elia.

This was the period, when the vines, the vineyards, in general, were highly appreciated. Meskheti is still carrier of Georgian traditions.

Unfortunately, since 16th century, no new vineyards were planted in Meskheti. Though the population was mostly Christians and only parts of the noblemen were converted to Islam, locals extensively migrated to the other regions of Georgia. This migration caused also transfer of place names and in the other regions of Georgia new, doubled toponyms appeared: Vardzia, Chorchani, Lelovani, Zovreti, Sviri etc.

This migration took away the traditions of vine growing. There were no more vineyards and the vine remained only creeping on the trees.

Famous scientists, Sh. Tsikvadze specially studied the Meskhetian vine varieties and the ancient varieties maintained in Atskuri were the most significant of them.

“We can regard Black Budeshuri as the varieties of the vineyards of “Matskevruli” monk. This variety is very rare in Meskheti Region. There are some samples of over 60-70 years age in the old gardens of Atskuri and ruined villages”. Matskveruli monks liked also Black Kharistvala and Chitikvertskha varieties. They maintained as few samples creeping on the trees up to middle of 20th century. Atskuri Eparchy used the wines made of Black Budeshuri, Kharistvala and Chitikvertskha grape varieties for church purposes.

The civil population liked the wine made of these grapes as well, though Dedisimedi and his family preferred Meskhuri Mtsvane. In this way the ancient Meskhetian varieties were maintained up to present and today the selection breeders create modern cultivated varieties from the wild vines and this is a new life of Meskhetian wine.

В статье, члена Совета Старейшин KTW, рек-тора Ахалцихского университета, профессора Ме-раба Беридзе «Древняя Месхетийская лоза», описана многовековая история виноградной лозы, которая, как и в других районах Грузии, всегда была ключе-вым звеном в сельском хозяйстве Джавахети. Здесь из за сложных географических условии виноградники располагались на специально устроенных террасах. Месхети, как один из пограничных районов, неодно-кратно испытывал набеги захватчиков-мусульман, которые беспощадно уничтожали виноградники. Лоза частично сохранилась только во владениях знати, принявшей ислам, но при этом, облагаемая высоким налогом, и в таких религиозных общинах, как Ацкурская епархия, где вино составляло часть ритуального процесса. Уцелели сорта виноградной лозы, произраставшие на деревьях, а другие породы, в связи с миграцией населения были почти утеряны. Компания возвращает к жизни полузабытые сорта виноградной лозы. Особой популярностью пользует-ся сорт «Месхури мцване» (Месхетийское зеленое).

From the ancient time, in Georgia, the wine, vodka, chacha, strong beverages were produced by the families from the raw materials available in the vicinity of their settlements: in Kakheti-chacha; in Kartli-apples, peaches, apricots, plums; in Samtskhe-Javakheti-mulberries, plums, cornels; in Guria-candle vodka, persimmons; in Mtiuleti and Svaneti-Zhipitauri; in Imereti-sour plums, wild peaches; in Khevi and Tusheti-beer. These traditions are maintained up to present, in rural and urban areas, in many Georgian families there are beverages made from blueberries, mint, estragon and other plants. They are used for treatment of various diseases, appetizers, as well as for treatment of digestion tract disorders, as sudorific, diuretic remedies. All these methods were used in folk medicine and some population strata still use them, those, who continue the methods, learnt from their forefathers based on the traditions.

In Guria, when an Isabella (Adesa) grape was widespread, the farmers began to produce vodka from chacha. Isabella was not good for wine production and the farmers did not use it for winemaking. The farmers, not interested in production of chacha vodka used these grapes as soil fertilizers or for feeding of pigs. In 1887-1891, number of vodka distillation aggregates increased to 50 from 9 units. In the period when grape-louse was widespread, due to vine diseases, in Guria there was lack of wine and the population used chacha for making the home wines.

In the regions of Guria-Chokhatauri, Ozurgeti and Lanchkhuti, mostly Isabella, Tsolikauri and Chkhaveri were grown, though some families produced small quantities of wines from such varieties as: Chumuta, Jani, Sakmiela, Mgaloblishvili, Cheishvili etc.

All families used the wine presses and large clay vessels for wine production, mostly for family use.

In addition to the family plots, Samtresti had the vineyards of Chkhaveri grapes in village Bakhvi, Ozurgeti District and village Sachamiaseri, Chokhatauri District and produced original semi-duce wine Chkhaveri. In the soviet period, in Guria, there were Chokhatauri wine factory built in 1955; wine factory of village Sachamiaseri, built in 1934 and Ozurgeti winemaking center opened in 1935, all belonging to Samtresti.

In addition to small family producers, there were famous viticulturists and winemakers in Guria producing the fine wines in their wine cellars. Among them we should note Jacob Marr, Gigo Sharashidze, Antumoz Chkhaidze, David Kalandadze, Solomon Cheishvili and others. Famous Georgian winemakers, Ermile Nakashidze, Maxim and Rezo Ramishvili were from Guria as well. They have provided invaluable services to Georgian viticulture. They studied the viticulture zones of the Region in details and wrote in their famous monographs published many times as ampelography, used

Ermile NakashidzeGeorgia has always had the famous viticulturists and

agronomists whose efforts maintained Georgian vine up to present. There was no higher education institution in Georgia before 1918 and children of Georgian noblemen and rich people got education abroad, where, together with education, they were engaged in practical activities and further continued their work in their native country.

In 1877, after his returning from Poland, Ermile Nakashidze was appointed at the position of the principal of Tsinamdzghvriantkari Agriculture School. For 5 years of his employment he trained numerous professionals in this sector.

In 1892, he left the Agriculture School and started to work at the Agrarian Department.

He was also a member of Grape-louse Committee in Georgia. Transcaucasian Excise Department and Agricultural Department conducted vineyards classification and their inventory every year and further presented the annual reports. Ermile Nakashidze performed significant work annually: he provided inventory of Guria-Adjara-Samegrelo vineyards, considered their opportunities and prepared descriptions of individual grape varieties. He used to walk from farm to farm, provided advice and recommendations and further published all these data as special reports consisting of tens of pages and submitted it written in Russian. Further the reports were publicly discussed.

Solomon CheishviliSolomon Cheishvili was born in 1951, in village Askana,

Ozurgeti District, Kutaisi Province. Due to particular contribution to winemaking of Guria, two villages, well known for winemaking, Askana and Bakhvi, according to folklore, were the place of location of Aguna, the mother-divinity of winery, riches and yields

Georgian Aguna is a goddess of grapes, similar to Roman Bacchus, Greek Dionysus. Names of village Bakhvi and Askana are associated with the name of Bacchus. It is believed that name of Askana comes from Askanuri, son of Aeneas, descendant of Bacchus.

Incomes of Askana community population were mostly the amounts gained from sale of the products and various articles sold out of the village.

Mr. Solomon Cheishvili of Askana was from the prosperous family. He was interested in production of the wines and alcohol beverages and to study these issues, he left for France. He spent two years in Bordeaux and Champagne province. He studied winemaking and viticulture there, as well as practical training and further before returning to his native country, he procured oak barrels, grape press, ordered the bottle labels and delivered all these from Marseilles to Askana, via Batumi. He arranged wine cellar in his house and commenced his work in vine growing and winemaking. He combined Georgian and European techniques of winemaking and sold his wine with the brand name “Cheishvili Brothers: in Georgia and abroad: in Trabzon, Vladikavkaz, Odessa and even in France, where he had numerous friends and colleagues. Wines made by Cheishvili were awarded various prizes in Russia and France, including Grand Silver Medal at St. Petersburg exhibition. One of the creeping vine varieties is known as Cheishvili vine in

Askana-Bakhvi area.

Solomon Cheishvili had his own trade houses in Tbilisi, Odessa, Moscow, Vladikavkaz, where he had a restaurant as well. He had bought the house in Vladikavkaz. In that period, in Vladikavkaz there was the vodka factory of Great David Sarajishvili. They successfully distilled the grain spirit and produced vodka and strong beverages. At his restaurant, together with the other beverages, his candle vodka and wine, Solomon Cheishvili always offered David Sarajishvili’s products.

Alexander, Solomon’s son studied at Leipzig University, further he returned to Georgia, though because of events of 1921, he escaped from Georgia. Nina Shevardnadze –Cheishvili, Solomon’s spouse was exiled and Solomon Cheishvili deceased in 1925, at age of 74.

way from Chokhatauri to Bakhmaro, on the bank of Gubazouli River. Villagers are basically engaged in agriculture. There live the representatives of Kalandadze, Dumbadze, Vashalomidze, Kerkadze, Gogiberidze, Lomtatidze and other families.

David Kalandadze studied at elementary school of Khidistavi, further at Kutaisi Gymnasium. Devid’s father was a prosperous man and he wanted to have well-educated children. After graduation from Gymnasium, David left for Kharkov, to continue his education. He was enrolled at the Faculty of Pharmaceutics of the university, where the subjects dealing with chemistry and food technologies were taught. At the university, together with Russian language, he studied French and Latin languages. After graduation from Kharkov University, he started his practical activities. He worked at private drug stores and in 1915, when he was 26, he returned to Georgia as well-educated person.

In that period, in Georgia, there were numerous factories, enterprises, companies and firms producing alcohol drinks, brandy, spirit and other products. The entrepreneurs, farmers, traders, philanthropists and in 1915, Georgian entrepreneur, philanthropist and well educated person, Mr. David Kalandadze joined the, He appeared on the arena when there was vibrant competition in the sector. Regarding the existing situation, taking into consideration the local conditions, because of financial and political situation, many manufacturers and entrepreneurs sold their factories and invested in the other businesses. The Armenians were particularly active, they were the leaders of almost all profitable businesses in Tbilisi and other large cities of Georgia, mostly, they procured the movable and immovable properties and attempted to foster in the business of alcohol beverages.

Fortunately, in that period, David Kalandadze was a pleasant exclusion, in 1920-1923, he purchased Aivazov factory of spirit, brandy and vodka, located on Station Street, in Tbilisi: he also purchased the rectification factory of Seilanov brothers; constructs the new brandy spirit factories in Ozurgeti and Zestaponi; establishes forms “Sesiashvili Brothers and K”, firm “Margo” and purchases interest in alcohol factory of Edward Potzel in Abastumani; he held the shares; was involved in pharmaceutical business, was a member of supervision board of Jacob Zemel and some other drug stores; he was the member of executive committee of Georgian Manufacturers and Traders of Georgia established in 1918; expert of customs; member of the National-Democratic Party. He headed production of alcohol, brandy, vodka,

liquors, chacha, strengthened wines, denatured alcohol and for this hi had the alcohol distilling and bottling plants and warehouses, always supplied with high quality raw and supplementary materials.

Thus, through study and working of the archive materials available to us, we were able to present a very interesting person unknown to wide society and professionals of the sector. He did good job, he was well educated and practitioner businessman who has said his word in the business of alcohol beverages.

He died in 1955, at age of 66, because of complications of diabetes. He is buried in Tbilisi, Vake Cemetery.

Jacob Marr

At a time of his being in Spain, he married Facunda Antonioni. When he studied at London University, Marr had acquaintance with Michail Vorontsov, later the Viceroy of Caucasus and Englishman Elliot. These people caused interest to Caucasus in him. Therefore, Marr lived for several years in Odessa and later, together with his wife and two children he arrived to Tbilisi and settled there, though, after conflict with the local government, he moved in twenties of the past century to Guria.

Western Georgia was not completely subordinated to royal power. For example, at least of Guria was ruled by Mamia Gurieli. In that

period Mamia Gurieli invited Marr as there were rare the people with good knowledge in agriculture and farming. Mamia Gurieli asked Jacob to arrange the garden. Laborious Scotch worked hard and arranged beautiful garden in Ozurgeti (on Gurlieli’s land)/

In twenties of 19th century, Jacob Marr settled in village Ianeuli, Chokhatauri Region and arranged the vineyard there. Basically he used the creeping vine varieties—Jani, Mtevandidi, Skhilatubani, Saknatura, Mtredispekha and others. He made only red wine applying local technology. He always sorted the grapes and never used those of low quality. For one year the wine was stored in the clay vessels, further it was bottled and stored before sale. Marr had the wines distinguished in the Region and they were successfully sold not only in Kutaisi province by also Russian cities on Black Sea shore, as well as small quantities in the Europe. Marr was one of the first winemakers, who have exported Georgian wine.

In 1863, after death of his spouse, Marr married with Aghati Maghularia (Sharashidze). He was aged, but soon they gave birth to son (1864) Niko.

Jacob Marr died in 1874, at age of 94,

В статье члена Совета Старейшин компании KTW, Заслуженного винодела Грузии, Бондо Калан-дадзе: «Знаменитые виноделы Гурии», рассказыва-ется о том, что в Гурии, согласно многовековой тра-диции, крепкие спиртные напитки настаивались на тех плодах, которые произрастали в той или иной местности, что обусловило многообразие их ассор-тимента. К примеру, в Гурии из сорта виноградной лозы «Изабелла» (Одесса) делали не только вино, но и нередко гнали водку. Применялись эти напитки не только для улучшения аппетита, но зачастую и в лечебных целях для исцеления от различных недугов.

Гурия известна высокопрофессиональными вино-делами, многие из которых получили образование за границей. Виноделы выращивали лозу на собствен-ных виноградниках и использовали как традиционную технологию, так и современные методы получали вина высшего качества. Такие именитые виноделы, как: Эрмиле Накашидзе, Соломон Чейшвили, Давид Каландадзе, Яков Марр и другие, составили славу гурийского виноделия, на трудах которых выросли целые поколения.

First capital work on ampelography of Georgia was published in 1960, its authors were professors Niko Ketskhoveli, Maxim Ramishvili and David Tabidze. The book offers the table containing 420 grape varieties and pictures of 57 vines made by professional painters with natural colors and sizes. The book is bibliographic rarity and it is unavailable for many people. Therefore, regarding particular significance of the book, we provide below the short extracts from the introduction of the book.

“Vine is one of the oldest plants. First representatives of the vine appeared in Cretaceous period and the area of their spreading was the entire world. After parting of the continents, the vine spreading area parted as well and now it is spread in three separated areas. Cultivated vine runs wild very easily, crosses with the wild vines and makes hybrids.

In the past, in our country, the border between the vineyard and forest was often lost, the vineyards were just at the wood sides and here mostly the “small fruits” were planted: various species of plum, cornels, hazelnuts, as well as pears, apples and nuts. In many cases the there were creeping plants on these trees, creating some kind of transition between the vineyard and forest. In many cases, among the creeping plants there was krikina—wild grapes.

With respect of origination of cultivated vine and development of winery, Georgia was and is one of the most significant centers, where over 500 varieties were formed, comprising 2.5% of the entire world range; this could be evidenced by the facts that the number of varieties in Georgia is 2.5 times greater than in Azerbaijan (200 varieties); 5.5 times more than in Armenia (90 varieties); 2.5 times more than im Central Asia (200 varieties); 3.5 times more than in Daghestan (150 varieties).

discussion of viticulture in our country and mentiones 413 varieties. Of these 413 varieties, 8 ones were spread in Hereti, 66 in Kakheti, 45 in Kartli, 59 in Guria, 26 in Adjara, 26 in Shavshet-Klarjeti. These, in all communities of Georgia, the names of 420 types of grapes were maintained. After publication of the above work, our researches found more exact data in this area and currently over 500 varieties are recorded in Georgia, in particular: 80 varieties of Kakheti; 72 of Kartli; 75 of Imeret; 50 of Racha-Lechkhumi; 60 of Samegrelo; 53 of Guria; 52 of Adjara; 58 of Abkhazia etc. Further work in this direction would reveal many new varieties. Of 500 varieties spread and known in out country, half is undoubtedly quite promising and significant for further development of viticulture and winemaking,

“The founder of historical geography of Georgia, Great Prince Vakhushti, in description of the yields and fertility, always marked the line, to where the vine grew, disappearing above that line, together with the fruits. Thus, in this respect, our land was divided into two parts, one of them with the vineyards and fruits and the other—without any vine and fruits”.

For Georgians, the vineyards were one of the main sources of wealth, people loved them and expressed their attitude in many verses, proverbs, puzzles and fairy tales:

“Don’t reject a young man, because of his black hair,

Go to the village and ask, whose is the largest vineyard.”

There are numerous such folk pearls in our country. Georgian winemakers usually grew the vines intended for wines, but they could be used for the other purposes as well, i.e. they selected the complex varieties, combining all required properties. Classical example of this is Rkatsiteli, a fine variety for winemaking, very beautiful, delicious, sweet and the vine is resistant to various conditions. In recent time it is also widespread in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Moldova, America and European countries.

Of course, combination of so many useful properties in single variety is not an accidental fact or simple result of its removal from the forest and cultivation. This is the outcome of diligent work of Georgian viticulturists, a variety obtained as a result of hard work. Selection of such variety was dictated by the past, environment, economics. Invaded enemies often ravaged our country, ruined the vineyards together with the houses and other properties. At that time viticulture was one of the key industries and after diving of the enemies away,

the agriculture should be restored as soon as possible and hence, the vine had to rapidly meet all needs. As a result, out viticulturists created the variety suitable for wine production, raisins, sweet juice and good as a fruit as well.

Thus, Rkatsiteli is a child of our country, reflecting our nature and history.

Leading specialists of Georgia Institute of Agriculture and viticulture, and winemaking, commenced their work on the volume about industrial vine varieties of Georgia in 1945 and this work lasted for almost 15 years. They decided to publish the vine varieties by historical-geographical districts, in particular: the varieties of Kakheti, Kartli, Imereti, Racha-Lechkhumi, Abkhazia and Adjara-Guria-Samegrelo-about 50-60 key industrial varieties, accompanied with the pictures of the grape bunches, leaves and shoots of natural dimensions.

In our country there are the varieties suitable for: sparkling, strong and semi-duce, wines, brandy and Champagne-type wines and grape juice, as well as those, suitable for production of raisins and sweet juice. We have also beautiful table varieties, as well as the decorative bines for the gardens, parks and alleys.

Today, many of these valuable varieties are lost of endangered. With the incentive of famous philanthropist and art patron, Mr. Bidzina Ivanishvili, in 2010, the National Center for Production of the Vine and Fruit Planting Materials was established in Saguramo, intending to save not only the endangered vine varieties but also fruits, their planting and distribution of the nurslings to the population.

This nursery has 430 Georgian vine varieties; 35 ones of Georgian standard vines; over 100 foreign varieties and 8 basic varieties. The nursery makes great job for saving of our national wealth—cultivated grape varieties.

Authors of the book “Georgian Ampelography” are deserved persons of Georgia, famous authorities in viticulture and winemaking, professors: Niko Ketskhoveli, Maxim Ramishvili and David Tabidze. The book includes only varieties highly significant for the industry. These scientists have made invaluable work for thorough description of many Georgian grape varieties, specifying the characteristics of wine made of them. The book is indeed a solid work of impressive size and it is quite hard to commonly use it. The book was published in 60-ies of the past century. In the epoch of electronics, its electronic version is necessary to make it available for many people desiring to get familiarized with it, not

В статье, члена Совета Старейшин компании KTW, Ильи Перадзе «Электронная поисковая система грузинской ампелографии», дается справка о первом капитальном труде Нико Кецховели, Максимэ Ра-мишвили и Давида Табидзе, «Грузинская ампелография», изданном в 1960 году, в котором описаны 420 со-ртов виноградной лозы. Впоследствии грузинскими учеными были изучены и другие сорта, общее число ко-торых, в настоящее время, превышает 500 наименований. Свою любовь к виноградной лозе народ отразил в фольклоре, сказках и поэтическом творчестве. Неоднократные вражеские набеги нанесли большой урон виноградарству и уцелеть смогли только самые выносливые, те, которые сочетали в себе приятные вку-совые качества и являлись перспективным виноматериалом, как например, сорт «Ркацители». В 2010 году в Мцхета, с помощью мецената Бидзины Иванишвили был создан Национальный центр посадочного мате-риала, где культивируются саженцы лозы и фруктовых деревьев. Поскольку вышеуказанный научный труд стал библиографической редкостью, компания KTW создала электронную версию, на грузинском, русском и английском языках. По программе поисковой систем компании можно получить подробную информацию на сайте:WWW.KTWGRUP.GE. и ознакомиться с информацией о 240 сортах виноградной лозы.

*** The widespread expression – “There is truth in wine” – was first given by the Greek lexicographers Zenobius and Diogenianus as a proverb. Alcaeus the ancient Greek poet (6th c. B.C.) often echoes with this theme, appealing to the contemporaries “to give pleasure to the soul”:

“Let’s drink, waiting for dawn gives us no profit,

A day passes rapidly,

Give me a big bowl, painted in colors,

Did not the son of Zeus and Semele gave us this wine

For making pleasure to men’s soul?

Pour, diluted one against two

And fill the cup brimful,

And let the cup follow the bowl”.

In Roman literature, together with other authors, Pliny the Elder in his “Natural History” glorifies wine, and Lucretius, relying on Epicurus.

Ethics, - one of the fields of Epicure’s teaching is preaching kindness... “The basis of happy life is in health of body and peace of mind”.

In Greek pantheon, Dionysus – protector of viticulture and winery is particularly popular. Hera, who got angry because of Zeus’s and Semele’s love to each other, advised to Semele, to ask Zeus, to make Zeus appear with all splendor before childbirth. And, indeed, Zeus appeared with his true appearance – with thunderstorm and turned Semele into ashes. Zeus managed to take infant Dionysus out from her belly ant put him in his own flank. Something similar is in Georgian legends about Amiran - the hero was taken out from his mother’s belly and put into the belly of a bull...

There are many myths about coming Dionysus to Greece. On his way from the Island of Icarus to Naxos Dionysus found himself to be on the pirate ship board. The pirates tied him to the mast and were going to sell him as a slave. The ivy turned around the mast and the grape clusters hang down from the sails. The pirates, frightened by this, threw themselves into the sea and turned into dolphins... Everywhere Dionysus came, he spread his cult, did marvels, and taught everyone to cultivate grapes and make wine.

The myths about Dionysus are not of Greek origin. The cult of Dionysus should come to Greece in the 2nd millennium B.C. from the Near East. The totem character of the cult indicates its great age. Dionysus became the god of viticulture only in the Athens of the Classic period.

During the reign of Peisistratos the cult of Dionysus became the State religion. The festival Dionysia, dedicated to Dionysus, was celebrated 4 times a year in Attica. The first one was celebrated in connection with finishing, of grape harvesting and making of new wine. In Rome Dionysus was called Bacchus.

In the history of Georgian nation a special place belongs to the famous patriots – Niko Nikoladze (1843-1928) – a democrat, publicist, critic, and Jakob Nikoladze (1876-1951) founder of Georgian realistic sculpture. Great is the merit also of George Nikoladze (1888-1931) – a well known mathematician, metallurgist, sportsman. George Nikoladze worked abroad for many years. He defended his thesis for the Doctor’s degree in France, University of Sorbonne. Now we would like to focus

You must always be drunk! In this is the only sense, this is the only purpose: If you want not to feel the terrible heaviness of the time, which tears off your shoulders and makes you bend towards the ground, you must always be drunk. But drunk what with? With wine, poetry, virtue, - with anything you want, only be drunk!

And if ever – on the stair-steps of a palace, covered with grass gorges or gloomy loneliness of your room you suddenly feel that you are sobering up, - then ask the wind, a wave, a star, a bird, a wall clock .... Ask: What is the time; and the wind, a wave, a star, a bird, a wall clock will answer:

“It’s time to get drunk! ... If you don’t want to be a slave and victim of times, get drunk, get drunk all the time! With wine, poetry, or virtue, - with whatever you want!”

George Nikoladze

With what inspiration, in what a beautiful Georgian the mood of the French poet is expressed, the spirit of his verse... How natural is everything! It is not possible not to remember Galaktion:

“Now, of course, is too late.

Sorrow passed the sleepless night in my heart

Though the keen regret makes me restless -

What is the time, What time is it?...

There was Charles Baudelaire, bitter and dear:

“It’s time to get drunk, time of wine”

So did he answer the question – What is the time?”

“Scientist Caretaker of Vine”

Few years ago one of the “ideologists” of the Rose Revolution publicly offered yet another wisdom, declaring that there have not existed scientific schools in Georgia... By the words of another “reformer”, the previous generations had no experience in the field of viticulture and winemaking at all. In this regard to my memory came back the story of a very modest and hard-working person, told by many people, who faithfully served to Georgian viticulture all his life.

Specialists recognize that Professor Dimitri (Tite) Tabidze was one of the first who began to create a gene pool of Georgian vine varieties in the 30-ies of past century. After grape-louse invasion to Georgia, he collected unique varieties of vine, doomed to perish, survived in homestead areas, and planted in the collection field. Thanks to his patriotic activity the Georgian vine varieties were preserved for the posterity, thus allowing commencement wide selective work. During the years Dimitri Tabidze worked in Tbilisi and Telavi. From 1946 till his death he was leading the Division of Selection & Species Studies in the scientific-research Institute of Horticulture, Viticulture and Viniculture of Georgia.

In 1960, “Ampelography of Georgia” was published, its authors were Academician Niko Ketskhoveli, N. Ramishvili and D. Tabidze. The work thoroughly examines the problems of viniculture. D. Tabidze’s works are accessible for the students

and professionals today. D. Tabidze has done great work for revealing and introducing of the new varieties of vine and improvement of the standard vine varieties (Rkatsiteli, Saperavi, Khikhvi, Tsolikauri, Pino, Tsitska, Krakhuna, etc.), using the clan selection methods; with respect of proving the possibilities of development of Champaign industry in Georgia. Even this list is sufficient to reveal the contribution of Professor Dimitri Tabidze, a scientist and tutor, “caretaker of vine”.

В статье члена Совета Старейшин, доктора фи-лологических наук, профессора, Валерия Асатиани, «In vino veritas» (Истина в вине), «ЗАРИСОВКИ», расска-зывает о том, что культ вина известен в мифологии и литературных источниках еще с древнейших времен. Праздник бога вина Дионисия отмечался при сборе уро-жая. В древнем Риме Дионисий именовался Бахусом. Миф о том, что Зевс, спасая своего сына, спрятал его в своем теле, перекликается с грузинским мифом об Ами-рани, которого, достав из чрева матери, поместили в чресла быка. Есть версия, что культ Дионисия переко-чевал в Грецию из арабских стран.

Великий грузинский поэт, Галактион Табидзе, в сво-ем стихотворении: «Который час», вспоминая Бодлэра писал:

Уже, пожалуй, слишком поздно,Огонь тревоги не угасИ нет в душе моей покоя:Который час? Который час?

Я, как Бодлер – поэт печали,Его спросили, как-то раз:«Который час?» - И он ответил:«Час опьянения сейчас!».
