As part of our "Helping Neighbors" philosophy, HORIZONS is proud to support a family-owned winery in Bakurtsikhe. We invite all guests to join in the unique Rtveli, the traditional grape harvest festival.
Rtveli is Georgia’s iconic grape harvest
and a cherished autumn tradition. Each fall, families gather in the vineyards to pick grapes, stomp them in wooden presses, and celebrate with music, food, and wine.
You’re invited to join the celebration.
