The Georgian authorities have prepared a project that aims to become a scientific substantiation of the fact that it is the birthplace of wine, the head of the National Agency of Wine, Levan Davitashvili said.
"The project is scientific in nature and aims to establish and identify the origins of Georgian viniculture," Interfax quotes him as saying.
Leading genetic scientists and archaeologists from Germany, France and other countries will participate in the project.
Levan Davitashvili also said that Georgia is working on making Georgian wine popular and that there are already developed market strategies to do so.
