Kakheti: Sighnaghi, Bodbe, KTW-viinitila, leivän ja churchkhelan maistelu

Meillä oli aivan mahtava aika Kakhetin viinikierroksellamme, rehellisesti sanottuna yksi matkan hauskimmista päivistä! Koko päivä oli superrento, ja tarjolla oli upeita näkymiä viinitarhoille ja maaseudulle. Viininmaistajaiset olivat hienoja, ja oli todella mielenkiintoista oppia hieman siitä, miten Georgia tekee viiniä eri tavalla. Yksi parhaista osista oli päästä valmistamaan ja maistamaan perinteistä georgialaista leipää ja churchkhelaa, niin hauska, käytännönläheinen kokemus (ja kaikki maistui niin hyvältä). Ja George… hän teki koko päivän 😂 Hän on aidosti hauska ja sai kaikki nauramaan alusta loppuun, mutta hän myös tiesi asiansa ja jakoi mielenkiintoisia tarinoita matkan varrella. Se ei koskaan tuntunut ”kierrokselta”, vaan enemmänkin siltä, että vietti aikaa hauskan ystävän kanssa, joka esitteli paikkoja. Kaikki oli hyvin järjestettyä ja helppoa, emmekä koskaan tunteneet kiirettä missään vaiheessa. Suosittelemme ehdottomasti tätä kierrosta, jos olet Georgiassa, varsinkin jos saat Georgen oppaaksesi! 🍷

There was a slight hiccup with the start of my tour and I had to change vans, but it was handled well. Must go if you want to try many different wines, the first stop at Chronicles of Georgia was scenic, the next stop at the churchkhela place had many wines and chacha available for tasting. Bought some tasty churchkhela there too. We then stopped at a small bakery to try tonispuri, which paired nicely with various cheeses. Sighnaghi town, Great wall and lunch was next. The lunch place had great views, price was similar as in Tbilisi. Finally, we ended at Bodbe St Nino monastery when it was less crowded and more peaceful. Omar was knowledgeable and made the trip enjoyable. Expertly alternating between different languages to cater for the different nationalities. There was ample time per attraction considering the number we went to. It rained on the way back resulting in traffic jam, but the van was comfy enough to sleep in. Roughly 12 people in total

Oppaamme Paata on yksi parhaista, joita olemme koskaan tavanneet. Hän on ammattitaitoinen, informatiivinen, erittäin huomaavainen ja teki matkastamme ikimuistoisen. Meillä oli kolme pysähdystä eri viininmaisteluissa, mikä antoi meille riittävästi aikaa nauttia jokaisesta hetkestä.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Amazing Day Trip with Mr. Paata! My husband and I had a wonderful time on our day trip to Kakheti, visiting Signaghi, the KTW Winery, and enjoying delicious local bread, wine, and Churchkhela tasting. A big part of what made the experience so enjoyable was our fantastic guide, Mr. Paata. He was extremely knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the history and culture of Georgia as well as sharing interesting stories about all the places we visited. His explanations about the different Georgian wines and Churchkhela were especially interesting and made the tastings much more enjoyable. Thank you, Mr. Paata, for making our Kakheti trip so memorable! We truly enjoyed our day and would highly recommend this tour and especially Mr. Paata as a guide to anyone visiting Georgia. 🍷🇬🇪❤️

Kiertue on erittäin mukava. Pääsimme oppimaan, kuinka valmistaa georgialaista perinteistä shoti-leipää, churchkhelaa ja viiniä. Keti on erittäin asiantunteva ja antoi meille kattavan johdannon Georgian historiaan. Ehdottomasti hintansa arvoinen.

想像以上にいろいろなワインをテイスティングすることができました。街をゆっくり散策したい方には少し短く感じるかもしれませんが、シグナギの雰囲気やワイン文化を「少し齧ってみる」という意味では、とても最適なツアーだと思います。

We booked a Kakheti trip and our guide was Paata. He is a really good and calm person, very knowledgeable and has great understanding of world history. We had a short but very meaningful discussion about the history of different countries and about reuniting people, which was truly insightful. He is also very knowledgeable about the wine-making process and explained it beautifully. The history of Sighnaghi really touched my heart, and I can still remember the stories he told throughout the whole journey. It will stay with me forever. Highly recommended!

Kierros oli hyvin tahditettu. Oppaamme Nino oli nokkela ja informatiivinen. Pääsimme maistelemaan yhteensä 22 viiniä + chachaa + brandya. Saimme myös valmistaa oman churchkelamme ja tuoretta shotia (äidin leipää).

特别好！酒蒙子不要错过，一大早就开始库库品尝葡萄酒，工厂和自酿都喝了，十分长见识的旅程！当然即使不怎么喝酒只是爱听故事看景色，也不要错过！烤面包和做葡萄核桃糖都非常有趣，体验和吃吃喝喝都很开心，真的非常好导游！讲解详细，幽默风趣，很有耐心，关照每个人。会简单英文就能玩很开心，而且性价比超级高啊！！强烈推荐！！！放点图给大家参考🫡

​I signed up for this tour because I wanted to try various types of wine, and it completely exceeded my expectations! ​First of all, a huge thank you to our incredibly cheerful guide, Paata! He made the whole tour so much fun and kept the energy high, so time just flew by. He treated us to an unbelievable amount of wine today—I honestly had no idea I'd get to drink this much! Thanks to him, I feel like I've become true friends with wine. ​It was fantastic to taste everything from large-scale commercial wineries to local house wines with that authentic, homemade touch. Comparing the different styles was so much fun. ​Beyond the wine, he gave us insightful explanations about the deep history of Georgian wine and the beautiful architecture of Sighnaghi, making it a truly memorable and meaningful experience. This will definitely be the most unforgettable day of my trip to Georgia. Thank you so much for all your hard work today, Paata! 👍
