Kakhetians (Georgian: კახელები, [kʼɑχɛlɛbi]; sg. კახელი, [kʼɑχɛli]) are an ethnographic group of Georgians who speak the Kakhetian dialect of the Georgian language. Kakhetians are the indigenous population of Kakheti, a historical region and fertile valley in eastern Georgia that produces much of the country's wine.[1] Like the general population of Georgia, most Kakhetians are adherents of the Georgian Orthodox Church.
