Georgia has long been a country where wine is woven into daily life from being poured at the table, shared on hikes, and raised in toasts at the supra. But for a long time, the public face of that tradition has been male. That is changing.

Femme Fête was born out of a desire to break stereotypes. The recent festival was an invitation to meet women winemakers who prioritize responsible farming, fair labor, and natural or sustainable methods. Two of Saperavi Brothers’ producers accepted the invitation to represent women winemakers of Georgia- Nini Chkheidze of Simonica and Ketevan Hubert of Tilisma. They spent the day interacting with hundreds of attendees in Boston bringing Georgian wine to life with yet another audience.

Saperavi Brothers has made it a mission to find and support the women winemakers of Georgia, now growing four lady-led brands: Two Sisters, Tilisma, Simonica, and Pi. In modern Georgian wine, women are no longer exceptions. They are authors of its next chapter.
