Badagoni celebrates another international achievement as two of its sparkling wines, Badagoni Rosé and Maestro Saperavi, have been awarded Gold Medals at the prestigious Glass of Bubbly Awards 2026, held in London, United Kingdom.

Recognised as a leading international platform for sparkling wines and Champagne, the competition brought together hundreds of exceptional wines from more than 20 countries.

Winners were selected through a rigorous blind tasting process conducted by an international panel of wine experts and sommeliers.

This recognition marks another milestone for Badagoni, highlighting the quality and distinctive character of Georgian sparkling wines on the international stage.

Proud to represent Georgia’s 8,000-year wine heritage at Wine Vision by Open Balkan in Belgrade, Serbia!

The event brought together wine professionals from around the world for a series of masterclasses led by renowned Masters of Wine and industry experts, including acclaimed wine critic James Suckling. The programme covered everything from viticulture and winemaking to wine tasting.

As part of the programme, the Badagoni team hosted a masterclass, sharing our country’s winemaking traditions, indigenous grape varieties and the ancient Qvevri method. Participants also had the opportunity to taste a selection of Badagoni wines.

We’re proud to share Georgian wine with an international audience as Badagoni continues to expand into new markets and build connections around the world.

Badagoni featured in Sanlian Lifeweek, a Chinese magazine, as part of a story on travel and gastronomy in Georgia.

The feature visits Alaverdi Monastery’s historic cellar and explores traditional qvevri winemaking. It traces the connection between this living tradition and the wines made by the monks.

Nearby, Badagoni Home offers another part of that story through Georgian and Tushetian cuisine. The coverage highlights dishes including kotori and khavitsi, placing food alongside wine in its portrait of the region.
