    26:30 Interesting. I'd never heard of *Chacha (brandy).* It's made from the grape "solids" (skin, pulp, seeds, and stems) that remain after pressing for juice or wine.

    • @eagleeye182

      Chacha is a pomace brandy. Pomace is pretty much the leftovers of the grapes after wine making. It`s traditionally homebrewed by local Georgians.

    Очень красиво снято. Я была только на одной винодельне. Вообще, если честно, найти очень хорошее грузинское вино для покупки сложно, да и стоить оно будет дорого. Усахелоури и Хванчкара приличных производителей, нашла их в Дьюти Фри в Батумском аэропорту, стоили дорого, но оно того стоило. Кстати кто озадачится покупкой вина - выбор в Тбилиси в 100 раз больше, чем в Батуми. Здесь только пара винных и супермаркеты.
    Ну и конечно до мурашек красивые виды на Алазанскую долину, можно смотреть сутками на эту красоту. Зеленая долина, голубое небо, Кавказский хребет, а за ним Россия🇷🇺
