Ancient wine from Georgia (Not USA like Atlanta)!

Here's a link to the ancient wines of Georgia the former Russian province. The segment aired on this weeks edition of "60 Minutes".

I would love to visit Georgia and talk with the winemakers for hours on end. I just wish the political scene would allow it.

I’ve been to Georgia about a half dozen times. Beautiful country with fantastic food and wine. There’s nothing political that should prevent you from going. It just takes really long to get there.

Thanks @bearpaw8491 for this. Very interesting!
I couldn't leave this alone. It's worthwhile to search the construction and use of the qvevri/kvevri. Coated inside with beeswax and someone goes inside to clean.

And out of curiosity, a search for "qvevri for sale near me" was a bust.
