Very soon a Georgian wine bar will open in the American city of Washington. This was announced by the President of Georgia Mikhail Saakashvili. This institution will be the result of agreements between the governments of the two countries.
During the negotiations, in the summer of 2012, a delegation of senators from America and the US Ambassador visited the personal estate of Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili, which is located in Kakheti. There, the guests were shown how to make wine at home. Saakashvili spoke about the unique local grape varieties.
The goal with which Georgia opens a bar in the center of the US capital is to popularize Georgian wine in the world. All visitors to the drinking establishment, according to Saakashvili, will receive a souvenir bottle of this drink. The Georgian authorities hope that as a result, wine prices will increase, and wine lovers from all over the world will prefer this drink with an exquisite bouquet.
At the same time, Mikheil Saakashvili stressed that even if the scale of production increases, control over the quality of products will remain as strict as it is at present.
It is assumed that visitors to the new bar will be attracted not only by the distribution of free alcohol, but also by the cozy atmosphere that is planned to be created inside. Perhaps the room will be decorated in a colorful Georgian style, national music will be played there.
So far, Georgian wine, despite its undeniable advantages, is not in demand on a global scale. However, according to Mikheil Saakashvili during his visit to the Tbilvino enterprise in Kvareli, the grapes from which it is produced are not inferior in taste to the fruits from Chile, Italy and California. In addition, Georgian winemakers have developed unique technologies for the production of this alcoholic drink: Kakhetian, Imeretian, Racha-Lekhchum. Therefore, they have something to offer consumers.
Popularization of Georgian wine will be carried out not only in the new specialized bar in Washington. The President said that even the country's ambassadors will sell the national drink. In addition, he is going to give a bottle of wine to all tourists arriving in Georgia.
