In the 1960s, one of greatest discoveries in wine world was the acknowledgment of Georgia as the birthplace of wine. A young man, dreaming of emigration and seeking his place in life, starts traveling the wine route: England (greatest civilization of wine commerce) and France - (Château Margaux, Château d'Yquem, Château Smith Lafitte, Château Branaire-Ducru). The discoveries during his wine adventure bring him back to the birth place of wine, his own birthplace: Georgia.
Join the Program on Georgian Studies for a screening of "Prime Meridian of Wine" and a subsequent discussion with film director Nana Jorjadze and co-author George Shephard (George Siharulidze).
