Mukhiguli 1770 is a small winery in the Kvemo Kartli region, founded by Ioseb Mukhigulashvili in 2019. Set on S.S. Orbeliani street, it represents a family-run approach to winemaking, continuing the tradition of local grape cultivation that has long shaped the agricultural character of this part of Georgia.

Kvemo Kartli lies south of Tbilisi and is known for its mix of rural landscapes, historic churches and multicultural towns such as Bolnisi, Marneuli and Rustavi. The area is dotted with vineyards and farmland, and travelers passing through often combine a stop here with visits to nearby cultural and religious sites, including ancient basilicas and monastery remains scattered across the region. The proximity to Tbilisi makes it an accessible day-trip destination for those exploring Georgia’s wine country beyond the better-known Kakheti route.

This winery suits visitors interested in smaller, independent producers and those curious about regional variations in Georgian winemaking outside the major wine tourism centers. It offers a quieter, more local alternative for travelers seeking an authentic taste of Kvemo Kartli’s winemaking heritage.
