Grand Opening: Anapea Village – A Journey Through 19th-Century Kakheti
Kakheti Valley, Georgia – Prepare to step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history and vibrant culture of 19th-century Georgia! We are thrilled to announce the grand opening of Anapea Village, a truly unique and authentic architectural marvel nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Georgia's famed Kakheti Valley wine region.
Anapea Village isn't just a destination; it's the culmination of a profound vision brought to life by the remarkable husband and wife team, founders and builders, Khatia Darguashvili and Gocha Tskitishvili. Their journey began not with blueprints for a village, but with a deep-rooted passion for Georgia's winemaking heritage. Over a decade ago, they meticulously cultivated what has become one of the largest natural wine vineyards and one of the finest natural wineries in all of Georgia (and dare we say, the world?). Their dedication to traditional methods and sustainable practices quickly established them as pioneers in the region's burgeoning natural wine movement. A movement centered on taking Georgian winemaking back to its ancient roots.
Four years ago, their ambition blossomed into something even grander. With unwavering determination, Khatia and Gocha embarked on an extraordinary endeavor: to construct an entire 19th-century Kakhetian village from the ground up. Their commitment to authenticity is evident in every detail, as they painstakingly sourced recycled building materials and genuine antiques to breathe life into their dream.
The result is a complete and captivating rendition of a historic Kakhetian settlement. Anapea Village features a diverse array of traditional houses, meticulously recreated to reflect the societal structures of the era. Guests can experience staying in resort rooms within these authentic structures, including insightful replica houses of a "poor peasant's house," a "wealthy peasant's house," and a nobleman's house, each offering a unique glimpse into the past.
Beyond its captivating architecture, Anapea Village is a vibrant hub designed for both cultural immersion and modern enjoyment. Explore the comprehensive Georgian traditional winemaking museum, celebrating centuries of viticultural mastery. Host unforgettable gatherings in our magnificent grand halls, perfect for special events like weddings, wine seminars, tastings, and industry events. For those seeking relaxation and entertainment, our resort complex boasts lively nightclubs, expansive swimming pools, and inviting swim-up bars. Even the youngest visitors have a dedicated space, with a large children's play center designed with traditional architecture, featuring doors, windows, and playrooms perfectly sized for their delight.
Anapea Village is more than just a resort; it's a living testament to the vision, perseverance, and passion of Khatia and Gocha. Come, discover the soul of Kakheti, savor exquisite natural wines, and create unforgettable memories in a place where history meets hospitality. We eagerly await your arrival!
