Life[edit]
Georgy Gogol-Yanovsky was born in 1868 in Poltava Governorate of the Russian Empire.[3][4] His lineage was of the noble family house of Gogol-Yanovsky.[5] In 1890, he graduated from the Physics and Mathematics faculty of the Saint Petersburg Imperial University.[2][3] After briefly working at the botany department of the university, he traveled to the Caucasus. Starting from 1893 he worked as a wine-maker in Kakheti, in the estate Tsinandali, and from 1893 as the head of the Crown Land Office's wine cellar in Tiflis, where Caucasus wines were produced.[2] In 1908, Gogol-Yanovsky was appointed as the lead manager of the Tempelhof estate with 150 desyatinas of vineyards, belonging to the Crown Land Office.[2][6] There he managed the production of table wines and cognacs. From 1912 he worked as an assistant of the inspector of viticulture and wine-making, and then as a manager of the Moscow wine cellar of the Crown Land Office. After the October Revolution, Gogol-Yanovsky was in charge of a department at Narkomzem of the USSR and worked as a viticulture and wine-making specialist there.[3][4] He wrote books on wine-making and viticulture as well as visited various scientific conferences in the USSR, where he met such prominent botanists as Nikolai Vavilov.[7] Starting from the 1920 he was a senior lecturer and professor at the Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy, where he led the department of viticulture.[1][3]
