Isabelle Legeron is on a quest. The maverick Master of Wine is fighting for authentic wine; wine that is distinct and natural rather than tailored to the international wine mould. Where better to begin her quest than in Georgia; the birthplace of wine?” read the press release distributed to over a hundred guests at the Soho Hotel in London on Monday 11th April. The event, organized by Travel Channel with the support of the British Georgian Chamber of Commerce BGCC, saw the launch of the Travel Channel’s latest documentary That Crazy French Woman in Georgia.Editors and senior journalists from prominent international media outlets such as Sky TV, the Sunday Times, the Daily Mail, Radio Times, and the Daily Telegraph Magazine attended the premier, lapping up a relaxed atmosphere and a variety of fantastic Kvevri wines from a number of leading Georgian wine producers.
