15 Best Natural Wine Bars in Tbilisi

Amber, pet-nat and qvevri bottles from small Georgian growers: the 15 natural wine rooms we'd send you to, with what to order and which tastings to book.

  1. 1

    Crossroads Bistro

  2. 2

    Dadi Wine Bar

  3. 3

    Nino Meris Wine Selection

Mariam Beridze, Food & Drinks Editor

Georgia was fermenting grapes in buried clay 8,000 years before natural wine became a category, so the low-intervention bottle you hunt for at home is closer to the house pour here. These 15 are for the evening that starts with one glass and negotiates from there: an hour after work, a dinner that keeps pace with the bottle, an afternoon spent deciding whether you like amber. They run from shops with a tasting table to small rooms with a sommelier, kitchens that cook to the wine, and a family cellar.

14 of them sit in Old Tbilisi, most close enough that 2 in one night is a walk, and the last is a cellar you book before you go. Order amber first if you've never had it, then let whoever is pouring pick your second glass. The small rooms fill up at weekends. Ranks run best first, 1 to 15.

#1. Crossroads Bistro -

Perfect for

  • Solo at the bar
  • Meeting friends
  • Small plates and wine

The glass here comes with whoever is behind the bar. Crossroads Bistro is an all-day room on Shalva Dadiani with a bar on site, so wine, sparkling and beer are poured beside the filter coffee from 10 AM to 11 PM, 7 days a week. One reviewer spent an evening being talked through wine and cooking by the staff. Google's range puts a visit at 20 to 30 GEL, and 48 reviews average 4.9. Come when one of you wants a glass and the other wants a coffee.

Known for: Order the pâté and a plate of draniki: they are the 2 most-named things on the menu, at 6 and 7 mentions in the listing's review topics. Syrniki, shakshuka and the brioche with bacon run the morning end of it, and beef cheeks are the one to add if you arrive hungry rather than curious.

#2. Dadi Wine Bar -

Perfect for

  • Sitting outside
  • Breakfast and wine
  • Taking a bottle home

Plenty of wine lists here stop at the Georgian border. This one does not. Dadi is a Sololaki bar and shop built on artisan Georgian producers working with minimal intervention, flagged for its wine list across 1,333 Google reviews at 4.7. You taste before you commit to a bottle, and one reviewer's whole recommendation is to come and discover the region's natural wines. Breakfast runs all day, the tables outside are the ones to want, and Monday opens at 2 PM against 10 AM the rest of the week.

Known for: Its Instagram runs the new arrivals, and one was 5 wines from a biodynamic family estate in Andalusia, farmed without added sulfites, so the Georgian shelf is not the whole shop. The kitchen cooks small and large plates from fresh local ingredients. For carrying a bottle home, there is a 150 GEL tote hand-sewn from an old paraglider, with 2 pockets that fit one each.

#3. Nino Meris Wine Selection -

Perfect for

  • A guided tasting
  • Cheese and wine
  • A late glass

You sit almost under the church, which is most of the atmosphere before anyone pours anything. This small Sioni Street shop and bar carries the name of Georgian winemaker Nino Meris, and the pitch is qvevri: amber wine, indigenous grapes and 8,000 years of method, explained in fluent English while you drink it. One reviewer who only wanted a glass was told the explanation came with the tasting package, so come for the tasting rather than the quick one. It runs 11 AM to 12:30 AM daily.

Known for: The shelf is where to start: a qvevri Mtsvane made by traditional method, an oak-aged Aleksandrouli from Racha, an Otskhanuri Sapere from Imereti. Tastings run from 3 glasses to 5 with a chacha. Put the cheese platter beside whichever you take, and book ahead when it rains, which the bar asks for on Instagram.

#4. Vino Underground -

Perfect for

  • Trying natural wine
  • Big groups
  • Early evening drinks

One reviewer wandered in by chance and left having learned this was the first place in Tbilisi built entirely around natural wine. It sits near Liberty Square with a few tables outside, and new management arrived in spring 2026. The list is Georgian and natural, region by region, and the kitchen buys from small Georgian producers too. Hours are short for a wine bar, so plan an early one: 3 to 11 PM, and 4 PM to midnight on Friday and Saturday.

Known for: Wine by the glass came to 16.50 GEL in August 2026, and the shelf is there if the glass works out. Ivan and Giorgi are the 2 names on the floor, so hand them your preferences and put the list down. A group of 17 booked the whole room for a private lunch in May, so ask if your table is that ambitious.

#5. Craft Wine -

Perfect for

  • Dinner in the garden
  • Wine with dinner
  • Eating vegetarian

Come here when dinner is the evening, not a stop on the way to one. Craft sits in a 19th-century townhouse on Ninoshvili with a garden and a fireplace, and its listing says Alexandre Dumas once lived there. The wine is the reason to book: its own description promises rare bottles from natural and organic winemakers across Georgia, and natural wines come up 18 times in the review topics. Bring the vegetarian in your group: the kitchen runs specials for them. It opens at 3 PM and recommends dinner reservations.

Known for: Ask what can be opened by the glass. One reviewer was told the whole list could be, and used that to try Pheasant's Tears. On the plate, hummus leads the review topics at 36 and the lavash comes warm from the oven, with katleti and beef cheeks behind them. A 12% service charge lands on the bill.

#6. Wine Not? -

Perfect for

  • Wine on a budget
  • Live music
  • Tasting with the host

Come in for one glass and leave having been taught something. Wine Not? is a small bar and shop on Vasil Petriashvili, and wine tasting is what its listing gets talked about for, 11 times over. Google's range puts a night at 10 to 20 GEL, which is cheap for the tuition. Live performances are on the highlights list and dogs are welcome, and it runs 3 PM to 1 AM with reservations marked required, so message before you walk over.

Known for: Ask for Burki's Kisi, a qvevri Kisi: it is the one bottle named twice in the reviews, both times by someone who said they would be back. The Georgian cheese board goes beside it, at 5 mentions in the listing's topics. Cocktails cover anyone finished with wine, and the shelves sell bottles to take away, so decide before the last glass whether one comes with you.

#7. WineCode -

Perfect for

  • An early breakfast
  • Date night
  • Buying rare bottles
Tasting room with wine racks and glowing counter at WineCode
Photo: Google Maps

The doors open at 8 AM, which is early for wine and about right for the breakfast served until 1 PM. WineCode is a wine shop with a restaurant attached on Wine Rise by Rike Park, and wine bar, Georgian wine and wine tasting are the 3 topics its listing counts most, at 20, 18 and 13. One reviewer waited nearly an hour for a simple order at lunch, so treat this as a sit-and-stay stop. The doors don't shut until 2 AM.

Known for: Saperavi and Rkatsiteli are the varietals its own description leads with, and the shelves keep rare local bottles alongside them. A cellar tour shows up in the listing's topics 3 times, so ask about one when you sit down. The kitchen leans Georgian, khachapuri the most-named dish at 9 and khinkali at 5. White by the glass is thin, so ask before you settle in.

#8. Kancellaria Natural Wine Bar -

Perfect for

  • Schnitzel and pet-nat
  • Late drinks
  • Eating solo

A resident cat will sit on your lap while you drink, according to the reviewer who said they would spend every day of their life here. Natural wine is the whole premise: the listing is flagged for its wine list and its own description sells terroir. It's a small room on Pavle Ingorokva, open 4 PM to 1 AM, or 2 AM on Friday and Saturday, and marked LGBTQ+ friendly and a transgender safe space. Seating is limited and weekends fill, so book before you walk over.

Known for: The schnitzel is the order. It comes up 15 times in the listing's topics, more than Georgian wine at 7, and big portions is a counted topic of its own. Cocktails are on hand at 7 mentions for anyone finished with wine, and a cheese plate covers the table. Google puts a night here at 20 to 60 GEL.

#9. Tbileli -

Perfect for

  • Trying amber wine
  • Dinner and a bottle
  • Quiet conversation

There's a terrace, and one reviewer's advice is to turn it down for the semi-basement instead. Tbileli is a family-run wine bar and restaurant on Abo Tbileli, the mother cooking and her son working the floor, pouring natural and homemade wine, chacha and a few cocktails. The lower room is stacked with antiques and paintings, and the antiques alone come up in 12 reviews. Come when dinner is the whole evening, not a stop on the way to one. It's open 10 AM to 11:30 PM, daily.

Known for: Ask for the homemade amber wine: 20 reviews name the homemade wine, 7 the amber, and the chacha is made in house too. The kitchen's Georgian with European detours: khachapuri, kupati and chashushuli, a beef and tomato stew, with beans in a clay pot. A dachshund works the room and will reach your table before the food does.

#10. Bu & Khari -

Perfect for

  • Trying pet-nat
  • Big groups
  • Wine and small plates

Most wine bars sell you someone else's bottles, but the owners here make their own, including fruit-nats fermented with real strawberries and raspberries. Bu & Khari is a wine bar, shop and kitchen on the 2nd floor at 37 Rustaveli, pouring pet-nats and natural Georgian wine over small plates and a cheese board. Its Instagram takes tasting and table bookings by DM. Come with a group who want the wines explained rather than listed. Doors open at 4 PM, and Fridays and Saturdays run to 1 AM.

Known for: Start with a pet-nat, named in 6 reviews, then work through the fruit-nats: strawberry, raspberry, melon, peach and tomato are all bottled. The tasting sets out 3 wine styles with cheese and olives, and one reviewer watched a single host pour for 5 couples at once. Its Instagram puts camembert and a cheese with fig inside on the board. Ask what fermented most recently.

#11. Impulse -

Perfect for

  • Live music nights
  • Late drinks
  • Wine in the courtyard

The building came first: 300 years of it, renovated by a son and his father, with art on every wall. Impulse sits off Vertskhli Turn, where the wine is homemade and Georgian, the courtyard and its oversized trees get their own mentions, and live music is a fixture, guitar and piano included. Google files it as a bar, an art gallery and a museum, which is about right. Come when the plan is a slow glass rather than a loud night. It's open 12 PM to 2 AM, daily.

Known for: Homemade wine is the house pour, named in 10 reviews against 11 for Georgian wine. One reviewer strongly advises against the house white, so taste before you order a second glass. The menu gets called creative in 13 reviews, and it stretches to shashlik. Chacha and cocktails cover anyone not on wine.

#12. Patara Dzagli -

Perfect for

  • A first wine tasting
  • Solo at the bar
  • Taking bottles home

Sommelier shows up in 36 of this bar's reviews, which tells you what you're really buying. Patara Dzagli is a natural wine bar and shop on Kote Afkhazi, stocked with low-intervention bottles from small producers and a few rarities that earned their shelf space. The room is casual and cosy, with outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi and dogs allowed. Come when you want amber wine explained before you commit to a bottle. It's open 4 PM to 12 AM every day.

Known for: The tasting is 4 wines for 30 GEL, each with a plain account of how it was made, and one reviewer rated that above the explanations they later got at wineries. Google puts a visit at 20 to 30 GEL, and the coffee gets its mentions too. There's chilled alcohol-free wine for anyone off the stuff. Buy the bottle you liked on your way out.

#13. Flying Cafe -

Perfect for

  • Coffee then wine
  • Wine with dinner
  • A relaxed evening

The name says cafe and the list says natural wine, and Flying Cafe sees no conflict. It's a cosy room on Giorgi Mazniashvili doing both: natural bottles, Georgian and European plates, and coffee people write about on its own. The house Unari wines come off the owners' own vineyard, and they're the obvious place to start. Polite staff is what its reviews name most, 8 of them against 7 for the natural wine. It's open 2 PM to 12 AM, so the afternoon works as well as the night.

Known for: Natural wine is the anchor, and the house Unari bottles are the ones to try first. The kitchen keeps pace with Georgian plates, sandwiches and hummus, and there's a pear dessert for anyone still going. Cocktails and coffee fill out a drinks list reviewers call diverse. Skip the tiramisu: one reviewer found it flat, built on frozen ladyfingers.

#14. Wine Boutique -

Perfect for

  • Buying a bottle
  • Quiet evenings
  • Bringing your dog

There's no kitchen here, and nobody minds: order food in and let the shelf handle the rest. Wine Boutique is a shop and tasting room on Anastasia Eristav-Khoshtaria stocked only with Georgian wine, natural bottles well represented. Helpful staff comes up in 18 reviews and a kind owner in 9, and the room stays quiet enough to hear them. Come when you want to taste properly before committing to a bottle. It opens at 1 PM and closes at 11 PM, or 12 AM on Fridays and Saturdays.

Known for: The stock is Georgian only, natural wine comes up in 11 reviews, and one reviewer rates the biodynamic shelf as probably the largest in Tbilisi. Bottles get opened for tasting before you buy, and you can stay for a glass. Google puts a visit at 20 to 30 GEL. Tell the owner what you usually drink and let him pick.

#15. Gvazi Winery -

Perfect for

  • A booked tasting
  • Small groups
  • Getting out of the city

A 10-minute drive uphill separates a wine bar from a working cellar, and this is the cellar. Gvazi is a family winery in Okrokana, close enough that one reviewer puts it under the Mtatsminda cable car, the city laid out below. Tastings are private and by reservation only: its listing says outright this is not a restaurant and not a tourist stop, and the programme is qvevri wine and Megrelian cooking. Come when the city's too loud and you want the wine explained. Book first, because nobody walks in.

Known for: Qvevri is the point: the tasting moves through amber, red, rosé and sparkling, and the cellar keeps rare reserve vintages and regional varieties that are hard to find elsewhere. Ojaleshi gets picked out by name. The Megrelian dishes arrive with the pours rather than after them. Ask for a slot near sunset and let the view do the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Which Tbilisi wine bars actually specialise in natural wine?

Dadi Wine Bar & Shop calls its Georgian wines minimal intervention, 18 reviews at Craft Wine name natural wines, and one reviewer credits the host at Vino Underground with a shelf of small-scale producers from every region.

What should I order at a natural wine bar in Tbilisi?

Amber first: a white wine made the way a red is, skins included, in a clay qvevri sunk into the earth. 7 reviews at Tbileli name it, and one calls the homemade amber the best wine of their trip. Then ask for pet-nat. One reviewer rates the Georgian pet-nat at Kancellaria Natural Wine Bar the best they've had, and Bu & Khari bottles fruit-nats made with real strawberries and raspberries.

Craft Wine recommends one for dinner and carries a booking link, and Bu & Khari opens each month's tables and tastings on Instagram. 7 of the 15 are marked as accepting reservations on Google.
