Mission:   

Saperavi – a grape variety native to Georgia – is becoming increasingly popular with winemakers around the world. 
Saperavi World Prize is conceived to become not only a wine contest of Saperavi wines produced in all continents, but a meeting point of international winemakers and Georgian tradition-keepers, backed by eight millennia-old winemaking history of Georgia – the cradle of wine.

The Contest:
  • Saperavi World Prize (SapPrize) is open to winemakers who produce wines from Saperavi variety. 
  • Wines are judged by international jury.
  • SapPrize is an annual event.
