About Us
Lisivaini is a family-owned winery and restaurant by Lisi Lake, where Georgian tradition and modernity come together in one space.
Our story begins in our great-grandfather’s time — for him, winemaking was not just a profession, but a way of life. That love has carried on to this day, and we continue what our ancestors created with heart and hard work.
The 200-Year-Old Oda
The 200-year-old oda at Lisivaini is an old Imeretian wooden house that we fully restored by hand and relocated to Lisi Lake.
To this day, it offers our guests:
- family warmth
- an authentic Georgian atmosphere
- the spirit of an old village in a modern setting
Our Wine
Our cellar continues the tradition of our ancestors.
We produce wine both in qvevri (traditional clay vessels) and using classical methods, and in total we make 9 types of wine.
International success:
- Lisivaini wines are now shipped to Portugal, Germany, and Australia
- Our qvevri wine is especially recognized
- In 2022, Lisivaini won a prize at the prestigious IWSC competition in the UK
Restaurant
Lisivaini’s restaurant offers Georgian dishes based on our grandmothers’ recipes, enriched with subtle modern touches.
Each dish is created to:
- be in perfect harmony with our wines
- leave guests with the warm feeling of being at home
Our spaces include:
