Appellations of Origin of Georgian Wine
NATIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CENTER OF GEORGIA SAKPATENTI Appellations of Origin of Georgian Wine OFFICIAL BULLETIN OF THE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY SPECIAL EDITION NATIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CENTER OF GEORGIA SAKPATENTI Appellations of Origin of Georgian Wine TBILISI 2010 GEORGIA RUSSIAN FEDERATION ABKHAZETI SVANETI RACHA-LECHKHUMI SAMEGRELO BLAC K S E A IMERETI KARTLI GURIA KAKHETI Tbilisi SAMTSKHE- A DJ A R A -JAVAKHETI TURKEY AZERBAIJAN A R ME N I A PREFACE In Georgia, a country with rich culture of wine-growing and wine-making, the tradition of using the geographical name of the place of origin as the appellation of a wine has a long history. Although the territory of Georgia is not large, the number of these appellations is nevertheless significant. Each of them is distinguished by special characteristics, high quality and reputation, which is influenced by the unique environmental conditions of Georgia. After the entry into force of the legal framework governing the protection of appellations of origin of wines, 18 appellations of origin of Georgian wines have been registered at National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia “Sakpatenti”. The Law of Georgia “On Appellations of Origin and Geographical Indications of Goods” defines the concept of appellation of origin and geographical indication and stipulates: 1. An appellation of origin is a modern or historical name of a geographical place, region or, in exceptional cases, a name of a country (hereinafter “geographical area”), used to designate the goods: (a) originating within the given geographical area; (b) the specific quality and features of which are essentially or exclusively due to a particular geographical environment and human factors; (c) production, processing and preparation of which take place within the geographical area.

Georgian Wine Producers @LWF19
LONDON WINE FAIR 2019 Georgian Wine Producers The small, mountainous and beautiful country of Georgia was hidden for decades from The West by the iron curtain. Bordered by the Black Sea, Russia, Turkey, and Armenia, and on the 'invasion route' from The Middle East, Georgia was coveted and controlled for centuries by powerful neighbours. Renowned for creativity, and love of song, food and rollicking hospitality, Georgia has wine as its lifeblood. Most families still make it, everyone drinks it, and it is deeply embedded in their national identity. The oldest evidence of wine-making was recently uncovered in a dig in the south of the country. For centuries, Georgian wine has been the darling of various incarnations of Russian and Soviet empires. In the last ten years, an independent and thriving Georgia has focussed on developing wine trade with The West. Fifteen wineries showed their wines here at the London Wine Fair 2019, these wine producers are invested, well- prepared to start working with the UK, and are highly motivated either to develop sales, or to find a new importer. GEORGIAN WINES LTD Their vineyard is located near a small river, Zangaura. The land once belonged to Merab’s great grandfather; he vividly recalls the stories his grandmother told of the Bolsheviks confiscating the property. Then, a small part was planted with Saperavi – which Merab still remembers the taste of, when he repurchased the vineyard in 2004, he knew that the only thing to plant was Saperavi. Although Merab’s family always owned some vines, and both his father and grandfather were winemakers, many were nevertheless sceptical about his venture into viticulture.
