The visit started from a pleasant offer by a man in a golf car to pick me up from the parking.
There guides is English, Russian.
At the entry, an ensemble in national cloth will orchestrate a short song in Georgian.
The guide explains the history of the winery and local winemaking. The regular tasting includes only 2 wines, the price is 15 GEL per person. The wine is OK, but nothing special. The award winning wine is not included in the tasting, which is disappointing.

Quite an amazing place. We had a tour of the tunnels which included a tasting session of the wine and the chacha. There was also a bbq tasting session at the end.
As part of our group tour we stayed for lunch too which was in the restaurant up the hill - taken there by a large golf buggy.

Exceptional!
Me and my wife got to this place almost accidentally, but now I’m happy we did. We were visiting in Kvareli lake resort for my cousin’s wedding and wanted to have a lunch somewhere on the way. We saw there is a restaurant and a tour in the vineyard for tourists, it looked interesting so we came.
The tour was really fun and interesting. They let you taste many traditional wines, I personally don’t drink alcohol, but my wife does and she really liked it, she even bought 2 bottles of some wines she liked. I tasted some cheeses, breads and high quality oil from grape seeds - we enjoyed it a lot.
And of course- The restaurant, is just lovely! Not only the food, but also a very beautiful interior design of the place, and the staff- wow, they are really pleasant and kind.
And at the top of point they have an observatory with amazing view. Also somehow the place is not expensive, I mean, we were eating in many restaurants in Georgia, and the prices here are pretty much average, but the experience is way above the average.
Obviously, I highly recommend this place!

An absolute pleasure to arrive at this scenic winery and we were greeted with song. There are lots of options you can choose from to enjoy your experience here, we had a tour and tasted 2 wines. It is cool in the tunnels but blankets are available. Great fun, great information and an amazing place to be.

entrance fee to the tunnel with one glass of wine taste is 6 GEL. The tunnel was only 50 meters long, nothing to see, except wine bottles with dust. the wine taste was only one sip of wine not even enough to have the taste. the whole tour last approx 10 minutes, one group after the other. the only highlight was to see, how georgian bread and churchela was made. all together not worth to go there.

This was a lovely day out.
At the tunnel you can choose between different tour packages depending on your budget. We took the 35 lari package that included 4 wine tastings, bread (Khachapuri) baking, Churchkhela making, and Chacha tasting (very strong...don't say I didn't warn you :).
They have less expensive and more expensive packages, but we definitely got our money's worth.
The tunnel is a bit chilly so take a light cardigan with you, or you can borrow a blanket at the entrance...take one (even the macho men)...the tour in the tunnel takes a long time and later on you will get the sniffles.
Bella was our guide, her English was great and she was very knowledgeable.
After your tour you can go and sit on the rooftop terrace. There you can enjoy your homemade Khachapuri bread and a lovely cup of coffee.

Build in 1959 it is now belongs to Khareba winery. The tunnel add up to 8 km and can hold up to 25 million litters of wine. During Soviet times tunnel was used by all winery's in Georgia.
If you just want to visit tunnel the price of entry is 3 GEL per person with an English speaking guide. You can request wine tasting and price will depend on number wines you would like to taste.
The winery complex includes restaurant with fantastic view of Alazani valley, however, food and service were disappointing so I would recommend to stick to coffee rather than lunch.

What is the transportation vehicle?

Hi, if you're asking about the transport up the hill to the restaurant then it's a large golf-type buggy. There's no transportation in the tunnels
Is it a suitable tour in a rainy day?

Yes, most of the tour is inside the tunnels. They do a bbq outside but there are covered areas

There are different amounts depending on how many of you there are, whether you want to include bread making and sweet making in your tour. The wine tasting for 2 wines is the basic price. I don't recall the rate, sorry.

Do we need reservation to come here? How much is the wine tasting tour fee?

Reservation not needed.
Don't remember how much entrance fee was but anyway it's less than 1 bottle of any wine there.
There're 2 wineries very close to each other at that place. Both worth visiting

- this is Khareba winery and tunnel in Kvarely. When going from the main road you'll find large area for parking with the winery gates and shop. This is another winery, not Khareba (but also interesting) Khareba Tunnel could be fount further on the road (300m or so)
- they have second location in Terjola: 42.166024, 42.941210

Экскурсия сама около получаса, у нас была дополнительная фишка - спечь хлеб в тондыре и приготовить чурчхелу это еще минут сорок. Насколько знаю есть туры с посещением ресторана.
