Shamakhi and Agsu Wine Tasting Experience
Meet your Azerbaijan tour guide in Baku and begin the tour.
Transfer to Shamakhi, a historic city originally based around two very prominent conical hills.
Visit Yeddi Gumbaz, a fascinating little collection of old tomb towers from where you can look back towards the city. It is also home to Azerbaijan's astronomical telescope complex and several rustic getaway resorts.
Arrive at Meysari Winery. For now, there are just three wine variants on offer, made from a curious mélange of French grape varieties, but the range will expand and change once newly planted vineyards of Caucasian seedlings come to maturity.
Taste Meysari wines such as Makhmari, Sadaf, or Marjan.
Continue to another winery in Azerbaijan, located in the city of Agsu near Shamakhi. By arrangement, visits to the production plant are possible and highly engaging - do not miss the Tetra-Pak production line. Tastings might encompass flavoured vodkas and 'Azerbaijan's first Raki'. The wine suggestions are Pearl Nar, Rübai Reserve, or Mil.
Finish tasting local wines and drive back to Baku.
Drop off at the hotel or any other location in the city.
