Guests who come here can taste local wine with delicious Rachu dishes in an ethnic environment. Also purchase of home-made sanovag (chireuli, jams, tklapi, Rachuli ham) on the spot.
Margvelidze's family winemaking originates from the 19th century. The traditional activity of generations was winemaking, which took the form of a business in 2014 and today, along with a 7-room guesthouse, seasonally hosts Georgian and foreign tourists from America and various European countries. The cellar and the traditional Rachuli house in its present form represent a synthesis of old and new styles, which, thanks to the seventh generation of the family, perfectly blend together, telling the visitor the history of the region and presenting different eras as one family.
