World's Best Sommelier talks about "Saperavi World Prize"

04.10.2017. Gerard Basset is probably the world's most distinguished wine expert - he is currently the only person in the world to hold the combined titles of Master of Wine, Master Sommelier, Wine MBA, OIV MSc in Wine Management, and World's Best Sommelier!

In addition, Mr. Basset is Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), President of the Court of Master Sommeliers (Europe), and President of the Wine and Spirit Education Trust.

We are thankful to Gerard for his encouraging words about Saperavi World Prize:

“Georgian wines are loved and admired by many Sommeliers and wine lovers around the world. 

It is really wonderful that there is now a special event for Saperavi a grape so strongly associated with Georgia and its wines. 

I would like to wish great success to this very exciting event.”
