Qarvani Anapea Village is located in the Region of Kakheti, Hereti District. Founded by Khatia Darguashvili and her husband Gocha, Qarvani was one of the first Ghvinos Wines portfolio members and also the beginning of our emphasis on bringing wines produced by the Women of Georgia in Winemaking and the Georgian Natural Wine Association.

Khatia and Gocha started Anapea Village as a “wine village-museum”. Their mission is to restore the household activity, lifestyle, viticuItural traditions and wine making techniques of the 19th century Kakheti region. Anapea villiage is a true Kakhetian village with houses, cellar, vineyards and indigenous varieties. The village is based on cultural and historic values, including an emphasis in natural, organic, and sustainability production traditions.
