You step off the minivan into the cracked-pavement square of an old town, wine steam and woodsmoke tangling in the air as a guide hands you a glass. Over the next nine days the route threads from Tbilisi’s cliffside churches through Kakheti’s sunlit vineyards to the gas-lit flames of Baku — a trip that pairs polished hotels with raw, immediate landscapes.
