The company Qvevvri Amoris, which means “love” in translation, produces wines in qvevvri according to 8000 years old technology. Wine from the vineyards, lovingly cared for by Georgian peasants, has become a source of inspiration for poets, artists and masters of art. The Qvevvri Amoris company wines are made in Tsinandali, a historic village in the Kakheti region according to the oldest Georgian technology. Wine aged in qvevvri has a special taste and high energy value. In addition, tannins found in 100% natural wine have beneficial properties for the human organism.
