What to Pair with Georgian Wine: UK Edition

Georgian wine isn't only to fuel a supra loaded with traditional Georgian food! If you want to enjoy it in the UK, you might wonder how it pairs with local favourites. The good news is that Georgian wines are quite versatile and can complement a range of dishes. We selected pairings for the most popular ones - take a look!

Fish & Chips + Baia's Tsitska Amber
This amber wine from Imereti offers harmonious flavours of dried apricot, soft lemon, and honey. Dry with a long finish, it plays beautifully against crispy, salty fish and chips.

Chicken Tikka Masala + Giuaani Tvishi
Spicy curries need balance. Tvishi—a semi-sweet white made from Tsolikouri—brings tropical fruit, good acidity, and just enough sweetness to soften the heat without drowning it.

Sunday Roast - options vary depending on the meat of your choice.

• Roast Chicken: Opt for a white wine with balanced acidity and body. Tiko Estate Rkatsiteli offers vibrant notes of white peach, nectarine, and grapefruit, with a touch of creaminess from lees ageing.
  
  

• Roast Beef: For hearty, protein-packed roasts, a robust red is ideal. Marani Mukuzani delivers deep fruit, strong tannins, and earthy tones that suit a Sunday roast really well. There is good selection of Mukuzani and other Saperavi-based wines in the UK!
  
  

• Roast Pork: Consider an amber wine like Babaneuri Marani Kakhuri Mtsvane for its high acidity and tannins that help deal with heavy meat, as well as pleasant dried apricot and herbal notes.
  
  

• Roast Lamb: Chateau Mukhrani Shavkapito is a good option for a lamb, especially served with potatoes and peas. This wine offers high acidity, round tannins, rich red fruit notes, and a touch of earthiness.
  
  

Full English Breakfast + Teliani Valley Kakhuri No.8
Kakhuri No.8, a structured amber wine with dried fruit and nutty flavours, easily cuts through the full English. Serve cool to handle bacon, eggs, and sausages without getting lost.

Afternoon Tea + Dakishvili Kisi Pet-Nat
Forget Prosecco. Dakishvili’s light, zesty Pet-Nat made from Kisi is lively and refreshing, perfect with tea sandwiches, scones, and pastries.

Salty Snacks + GVino Kisi
Crisps, charcuterie, or even sharp cheeses—the wine’s structure and savoury bite are made for it! Qvevri amber wines like this generally go well with salty, rich foods.
