Bakashvili Wine

Winemaking Tradition

Our History

The village of Sakobo in the Signagi district belongs to the Tibaani winemaking zone, located in the inner region of Kakheti, in the eastern part of the Alazani Valley, on the southeastern plain of Gombori, at coordinates 41°35' and 46°00'. The absolute elevation of the viticulture zone ranges from 350 to 550 meters above sea level. The Bakashvili family has lived in Tibaani since the 18th century. Like almost every family in the area, they have maintained a Marani (traditional Georgian winery) for as long as they can remember. The Marani—often referred to as "Marani/home" by locals—connects the bedroom directly to the wine cellar with a single door, symbolizing the central role of winemaking in the family’s daily life. Ako Bakashvili, who runs the family business, is a financier by profession. However, his love for family heritage...

Our History

The village of Sakobo in the Signagi district belongs to the Tibaani winemaking zone, located in the inner region of Kakheti, in the eastern part of the Alazani Valley, on the southeastern plain of Gombori, at coordinates 41°35' and 46°00'. The absolute elevation of the viticulture zone ranges from 350 to 550 meters above sea level. The Bakashvili family has lived in Tibaani since the 18th century. Like almost every family in the area, they have maintained a Marani (traditional Georgian winery) for as long as they can remember. The Marani—often referred to as "Marani/home" by locals—connects the bedroom directly to the wine cellar with a single door, symbolizing the central role of winemaking in the family’s daily life. Ako Bakashvili, who runs the family business, is a financier by profession. However, his love for family heritage and a touch of luck brought him back to winemaking. In 2014, together with his father, Ako decided to revive the family tradition of producing wine in Qvevri. At first, it was merely a hobby, meant for family and friends. But after a wine expert, by chance, tasted the wine at a gathering and recognized its potential, Ako was encouraged to take his winemaking to another level and commercialize it. Not long after, in 2016, Bakashvili Wine made its first official appearance at the Tbilisi Wine Festival, where it received tremendous recognition. This success gave Ako the motivation to continue improving and expanding the family business. Around the same time, Ako’s brother’s painting, The Sommelier, was stolen from an art gallery in Moscow. The only remaining low-quality photograph of the artwork later inspired Ako to use it as the wine label, turning it into a tribute to his brother’s art. Today, Bakashvili Winery produces Rkatsiteli, Kisi, Khikhvi, Saperavi, Malbec, and a Cabernet Franc blend—natural wines crafted with minimal human intervention, following ancient Georgian Qvevri traditions. Annual production is limited to 2,500–3,000 bottles. Bakashvili wines, easily recognized by their unique label, can now be found in select specialized wine shops in Georgia, Germany, and Austria.
