Pheasant's Tears Winery — Winery in Sighnaghi

The most accessible address for wine tourism in Georgia. Founded by American artist John Wurdeman and Georgian winemaker Gela Patalishvili, in the picturesque UNESCO town of Sighnaghi in the Kakheti region. Pheasant's Tears combines authenticity with hospitality: a restaurant, a wine bar and a winery in the heart of Georgia's most visited wine region. The restaurant serves traditional Georgian cooking, khinkali (dumplings), lobiani (bean bread), grilled meat and pkhali (vegetable dishes), all designed to go with their own wines. The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner, the wine bar is also open to walk-ins, and the winery can be visited in season. Sighnaghi itself is well worth it: small cobbled lanes and panoramic views over the Alazani valley and the Caucasus.
