Which Georgian wine brands should I buy in Batumi, and what are good alternatives to poor-quality Kindzmarauli?

Trublvino Kindzmarauli received a negative assessment, so for a sweet red it may be better to choose another brand or taste a glass at a restaurant first.

For an affordable dry white, try KTW Rkatsiteli, mentioned at about 4 GEL per litre. It is suggested as an alternative to informal homemade bulk wine.

For a dry red, KTW Saperavi is recommended at roughly 6.5 GEL per litre.

KTW dry white is described as light, easy-drinking and not overly acidic, making it a practical everyday white-wine choice.
