Heraclius, the second Bagration, created the union of the Kartlian and Kakhetian kingdom. At that time they were under Iran rule. Although Georgian independence was partly preserved. Heraclius was a great warrior and won many winners. Be that as it may, Heraclius began to seek an alliance with Christians, and he saw a possible ally in Russia.
From the picturesque Sighnaghi, our way passed through the Alazani Valley to Gudauri. Maybe we were led by the mythical griffin that brought grape seed to Georgia? We have enjoyed wine, vineyards, wine museum, tastings, more wine, and more wine! And even in Telavi, after the Mimino tree, we tasted wine and chacha again. Spectacular views of the Georgian military road and the Aragvi gorge accompanied us on the way to Gudauri. It was an incredible adventure!
