Georgian Amber Wine and Sustainability: Discover the Sustainable Brilliance of Georgian Winemaking with Corus Imports


When it comes to sustainability in winemaking, Georgian wine stands at the forefront of the global natural wine movement. Rooted in ancient traditions and powered by organic farming, Georgian wine is an exceptional choice for eco-conscious consumers seeking wines made without synthetic additives, industrial processing, or environmental compromise.

At Corus Imports, we’re proud to be the largest importer of Georgian wine in the United States. Our mission is to bring the world’s most authentic and sustainable Georgian wines—especially the distinctive amber wines—to American tables.

Why Georgian Wine Is a Model of Sustainable Winemaking

Unlike many modern wine regions that rely on industrial techniques, Georgian wine is crafted through time-honored methods that support soil health, biodiversity, and natural fermentation. One of Georgia’s most iconic contributions to sustainable wine culture is the qvevri method, recognized by UNESCO as part of the world’s Intangible Cultural Heritage.

This process involves fermenting and aging wine in large clay vessels buried underground—without the use of commercial yeasts, additives, or chemical stabilizers. The result is a naturally expressive, eco-friendly wine that reflects Georgia’s terroir in every sip.

🧠 Fun Fact: The word “wine” itself may derive from the ancient Georgian word ghvino, pointing to the country’s foundational role in winemaking history.

Georgian Wine and Organic Farming: A Perfect Pairing

Georgian wine is made with minimal intervention, often from organically grown indigenous grapes like Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane, and Saperavi. Winemakers prioritize:

  • Dry farming to conserve water

  • Avoidance of synthetic pesticides or herbicides

  • Cover crops and natural biodiversity

  • Hand harvesting and wild yeast fermentation

These traditional techniques meet today’s definition of sustainable winemaking—without ever needing to be reinvented.

  • Mtevino – Known for combining heritage winemaking with modern quality standards for clean, dynamic wines

Each bottle we carry represents the core values of Georgian wine: purity, sustainability, and cultural authenticity.

Georgian Amber Wine: A Natural Wine for a New Generation

Among the many styles of Georgian wine, amber wine (also known as orange wine) is perhaps the most captivating. Produced by fermenting white grapes with their skins using the traditional qvevri technique, these wines are structured, aromatic, and rich in natural character.

They appeal not only to fans of natural wine and organic wine, but also to sommeliers and retailers seeking low-intervention wines with a compelling backstory.

🧠 Fun Fact: In Georgia, amber wine is often served during long feasts called supras, where multiple toasts are made with each course—each toast full of meaning and tradition.

Why Eco-Conscious Consumers Choose Georgian Wine

More than a trend, Georgian wine represents a return to real, responsible winemaking. With rising demand for transparency and sustainability in the wine industry, Georgian wine checks every box:

  • Made using organic, regenerative farming practices

  • Free from synthetic inputs

  • Naturally fermented in qvevris

  • Bottled with minimal sulfites and no artificial manipulation
