KTW works with over 50 different indigenous grape varieties comprising 600 hectares of vineyards located in many different wine-growing regions of Georgia and produces many styles of wine including white, red and the famous semi-sweet red styles. Often regarded as “the birthplace of wine”, Georgia has over 500 native grape varieties. 

KTW Guramishvili’s Murani Chinuri is made from 100% Chinuri grapes. This grape variety is also known as Kaspuri and used to be also known as Chinebuli which means “excellent” in the Georgian language. The grapes undergo a cool fermentation and the wine is aged for 9 months in oak barrels.
