Henry’s Marani - Traditional Georgian Qvevri Museum & Winery in the UK
The first ever Traditional Georgian Qvevri Museum & Winery in the UK MARANI is an elegant, yet somewhat unusual Georgian word meaning “wine cellar”.
Welcome to the first ever in the UK Traditional Georgian Qvevri Museum & Winery - HENRY's MARANI, established in 2017. It was precisely in Georgia where the wine culture originated some 8,000 years ago. The Georgians started making wine in what was later established as a traditional way of wine making - in Qvevri, a cone-shaped clay vessel buried in the ground. UNESCO enlisted the wine fermenting
technology in Qvevri as Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2013. Henry Mchedlishvili, the Georgian by origin, is the founder of HENRY's MARANI. After nearly 2 decades of importing wines from Georgia, he decided to bring the traditional way of Georgian wine-making as well to the UK. You can now experience this tradition of wine making in its original form at the wine department of Plumpton College in Sussex. We usually offer unique wine tasting events, but due to pandemic this opportunity is somewhat limited atm. But, we can offer qvevri wines made in HENRY's MARANI for sale as well as the wines which we specially chose and bring directly from Georgia for you.

First Georgian Qvevri Winery- “Marani “ and museum in the UK
Welcome to the first ever in the UK marani museum which includes the wine tasting hall Henry’s Marani. Marani is an elegant yet somewhat unusual Georgian word meaning “wine cellar”
It was precisely in Georgia that the wine culture was born some 8,000 years ago. The Georgians started making wine in what was later established as a traditional way of wine making – in Qvevri, a cone-shaped clay vessel buried in the ground.
In 2013 the UNESCO enlisted the wine fermenting technology in Qvevri as Intangible Cultural Heritage.
As is the way in life, societies and civilisations have developed, changed and seen many dramatic changes over the 8 millennia; however, the Georgian nation has nurtured with love their wine making tradition and preserved it for posterity.
You can now experience this tradition of wine making in its original form at the wine department of Plumpton College in Sussex.
It is doubly pleasing to know that the marani in Plumpton College is already up and running. You will be able to find out about various historical samples of Georgian wines as well as taste wines matured in Qvevri, orange wine along with English sparkling wine to name but a few. We also keep wines which we specially chose and brought directly from Georgia for you.
We are happy to host you at any weekend of your choice. Just let us know a convenient date and time. We can arrange transfers from London for groups of 10 or more.
