IT'S ONE THING TO OPEN A RESTAURANT that nails a perfectly cheesy, crispy khachapuri, or to train a team capable of coaxing a stubborn Napa Cab-head into ordering a bottle of Georgian rosé. It's an entirely different thing to build a business that supports small wine producers from Syria, Lebanon, and Georgia by assuming much of the necessary financial and logistical risk tied to bringing their wines to an American audience.
