Georgia has an 8000-year-old history of continuous winemaking tradition, which is evidenced by numerous archaeological discoveries and historical facts. Many exhibits dating back to millennia, and related to winemaking are preserved in Georgian museums. Especially noteworthy is the agriculture of the Shulaveri-Shomu-Tepe period, which preserved a ceramic Qvevri-like vessel for wine, decorated with grape relief pattern, which is believed to be the world’s oldest wine vessels.
