Description
Producer
Kapistoni! That was the exclamation of Niko Chochishvili’s grandfather when he got a really good wine in his glass. And he should know, because Grandpa was a winemaker by trade. Niko has wanted to become one all his life: a winemaker. And in a roundabout way he has also found his calling. Niko emigrated to the United States with his parents in 1993 as a teenager. He went to high school and then to military college. He became an American citizen and professional soldier in the American army. Yet the blood is thicker than water. In 2010 Niko returned to his homeland. He started making wine in his country house not far from the capital Tbilisi. There were still old qvevris buried in the basement. And study a lot. Studying a lot. For though nearly every man in Georgia makes wine; Making really good wine every year, that’s really a profession.
