Qvevri wine, Bodbe Monastery and the hilltop town of Sighnaghi above the Alazani Valley.
Kakheti is where most Georgian wine comes from, and much of it is still made the old way, in qvevri: clay vessels buried in the ground. The tradition is on UNESCO's list of intangible heritage.
We drive east to Bodbe Monastery, where St Nino is buried, then on to Sighnaghi, a hilltop town inside old walls with views across the Alazani Valley to the Caucasus. On the way back there is time for a tasting at a family winery.
A peaceful convent among cypress trees and the burial place of St Nino.
Cobbled streets, wooden balconies and an 18th-century town wall you can walk along.
Taste wine made in qvevri, often with bread and cheese from the house.
