The history of winemaking at Château Mukhrani started in 1878 with its first vintage. It was Ivane Mukhranbatoni, a descendant of the Bagrationi Royal Family, who, after returning home from France where he learnt about the fine art of winemaking in the Bordeaux and Champagne regions, decided to introduce the concept of a Château in Georgia. He implemented contemporary winemaking methods and started producing wonderful Georgian wines on the ancestral Mukhrani Estate. The combination of local traditions and new techniques revolutionized the quality of Georgian wine. Since 1878, this outstanding quality has been highly acclaimed and won many international awards. Château Mukhrani has become renowned around the world for its splendid Château, underground cellars, wonderful gardens and pristine vineyards.
