In the heart of the Alazani Valley, where the sun lingers over the vineyards and the Caucasus Mountains rise in the distance, lies the village of Vejini. It was here, in 2003, that the Periani family transformed their heritage into a new chapter of Georgian winemaking.
What began as a desire to continue a family tradition has grown into a modern 80-hectare estate, where old and new live side by side. At its centre stands the cellar a symbol of the bond between soil, grapes, and the final glass of wine. Inside, ancient Qvevri clay vessels sit alongside stainless steel tanks, uniting Georgian authenticity with European precision.
Periani’s vineyards are home to Georgia’s most celebrated grapes Saperavi, Khikhvi, Rkatsiteli, and Mtsvane as well as rarer varietals the family is determined to preserve for future generations. Each harvest is carefully selected, every fermentation guided by both science and tradition, and every bottle finished with premium French glass and Portuguese cork, sealed with wax like treasures destined to age with grace.
But Periani is more than tradition alone. The winery is committed to sustainability, with wastewater treatment, organic cultivation, and renewable energy projects safeguarding the Alazani basin. It is a vision of winemaking that honours the past while looking confidently to the future.
Now part of the 8000 Vintages portfolio, Periani offers wines that are rich, expressive, and unmistakably Georgian from the deep, powerful Saperavi Qvevri to the golden, textured Khikhvi Amber. Each bottle tells the story of a family, a valley, and a country where wine has been made for 8000 years.
Welcome to Periani Wines - where heritage and innovation share the same glass.
