Is it worth buying wine in plastic bottles in Batumi Georgia?

Based on 1 discussions with 2 participants · Last activity: today

TL;DR

Wine in plastic bottles can be decent but must be consumed quickly — don't take it home. Bottled wine from small local wineries is a better choice for souvenirs.

What the community said

Plastic-bottle wine from the Batumi seafront or Boni market is a risky buy. Only worth purchasing if you've tried that specific wine multiple times before and trust the quality. Not suitable for taking home as a souvenir.

Plastic-bottle wine should be consumed right away after purchase. Transporting it over long distances is pointless — quality will deteriorate.

The origin of plastic-bottle wine is questionable. Meanwhile, bottled wine from small Georgian wineries — unavailable abroad — is a much more interesting buy in Batumi.

Wine from small local wineries sold in glass bottles is generally better than mass-produced options. This is what's worth bringing home from Georgia as a souvenir, not plastic-bottled wine.
