Tommo from Eat This! Food & Wine Tours and Megsy from Food Fun Travel are back on the podcast to talk about the 8,000 year history of wine from the country of Georgia! Tommo and Megsy tell Brent about some of the unique wine regions of Georgia, aging wine in clay pots, and a monastery that has been making wine continuously for 1,000 years. Plus, we discuss the irony of Georgia being the oldest wine making place in the world while having one of the world’s youngest winemaking industries. [Ep 303]
