Vineyards on the map

Dark — the plots where vines grow; the backdrop shows districts shaded by their hectares in the cadastre, with the leading grape in the label. Click a plot for its area and zone, click a district for its figures.

The map

Pick a layer, then a place.

Vineyard plots come from two sources. For Kvareli and Lagodekhi it is the land-use survey of the Ministry of Agriculture, where every plot is outlined: 11.4 thousand hectares. For the rest of the country they are hand-drawn OpenStreetMap outlines (ODbL): 4.9 thousand hectares against 49.9 thousand in the state cadastre, so an empty spot there means “nobody mapped it”, not “nothing grows here”. Each plot card names the source of its outline. District shading and the figures in the labels come from the 2025 vineyard cadastre of the National Wine Agency; district borders — geoBoundaries (ADM2). A district is an administrative unit, not an appellation: the Gurjaani district and the Gurjaani zone overlap but differ.

Coordinates and basemap

Where the dots come from, and how precise they are.

  • Exact address

    The dot stands on the place itself: the producer or an open source gave the coordinate, and a person checked it. Unchecked points never reach the map.

  • Village point

    The yard is not established: the dot stands on the village and is drawn as a ring. When several producers work from one village they share the dot, and its card lists them all.

  • Basemap

    OpenStreetMap via OpenFreeMap: the tiles come from their servers, as with any web map. Basemap data © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).

  • What is not on the map

    Opening hours — we do not collect them, so check with the producer. Visits and tastings are shown only where confirmed; elsewhere it says “not established”.

Layer sources

  • Wineries — coordinates from the producers themselves (the Natural Wine Association catalogue) and from open sources.
  • Vineyards — OpenStreetMap outlines (ODbL), and for Kvareli and Lagodekhi the Ministry of Agriculture land-use survey; district hectares and grapes — the 2025 vineyard cadastre of the National Wine Agency; district borders — geoBoundaries.
  • Appellations — outlines from the zone specification maps of the National Wine Agency, the Sakpatenti bulletin and Georgian Wine Club: illustrations to the specifications, not legal borders. Backdrop — wine-growing zones from the agency's map.
