TL;DR
Regular supermarket wine in Batumi is often mixed with dyes/additives — look for brand shops from Kakhetian wine producers, e.g. on Tursa street, or the Agrohub supermarket. For the best selection, many travelers go to Wine Gallery in Tbilisi.
Tip: go to a good wine shop and ask for Khvanchkara — choose the pricier option for better quality.
