The church is known simply as a historical one: no saint name is given for it, and the description is exactly that, a description rather than a proper name. What lies behind it, and how old the church really is, local tradition does not specify.
Sanavardo lies a few kilometres west of Kvareli, among the vineyards of the Kvareli neighbourhood that yield the wines of this part of Kakheti. From here it is a short way to the Trinity church beyond the town limits, to the Kindzmarauli monastery and to the churches of Kuchatani.
There is no fixed schedule of services and the site can be approached at any time. The detour is short, the road from Kvareli is mostly paved, with an unpaved turning to the church. The trip combines well with a wine route around the Kvareli neighbourhood: the distances here are short, all within ten kilometres.
