To facilitate the smooth organization of the 2025 grape harvest, an additional hotline will be launched by the Vintage Coordination Headquarters. The hotline number – 0322 193 283 – will be operational 24/7 once the harvest begins. Additionally, information regarding the vintage can be obtained through the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture’s hotline – 1501.
“The state continues to support winegrowers and farmers to ensure the efficient and uninterrupted realization of the grape harvest. Once the vintage starts, the coordination headquarters’ hotline will be activated, operating around the clock to promptly respond to inquiries from winegrowers and producers,” said Levan Mekhuzla, Chairman of the National Wine Agency.
“The additional hotline will further contribute to the smooth conduct of the vintage process.”
The Harvest Coordination Headquarters is located in the village of Gurjaani, Gurjaani Municipality, and will function 24 hours a day throughout the harvest period.
As per the decision of the Government of Georgia, no subsidies will be provided to private wine companies in 2025. Instead, LLC “Harvest Management Company”, a state enterprise, will absorb the surplus grapes. Purchase prices have been set as follows:
