Askaneli is a Georgian winery founded by the Chkhaidze brothers, building on a family winemaking tradition that dates back to the 1880s in the village of Askana, Guria. The historic cellar established by their ancestor Antimoz Chkhaidze, along with traditional qvevri vessels, remains an important part of the winery’s identity.

Today, the company operates as a vertically integrated producer, managing the entire process from vineyard cultivation to bottling under certified quality standards. Its vineyards extend across key regions such as Kakheti, including the Kindzmarauli appellation, as well as Guria, where rare indigenous varieties like Chkhaveri are preserved.

Production combines traditional Georgian techniques - especially qvevri fermentation - with modern winemaking technology, resulting in a diverse portfolio of over 60 wine labels, alongside sparkling wines, brandy, chacha, and fruit distillates. Askaneli Brothers is considered one of the leading wine producers in Georgia, with a strong presence in international markets.

The winery plays an active role in preserving native grape varieties while adapting to contemporary production standards. Its overall approach reflects a balance between heritage, scale, and consistency in quality.
