Cellar Door Wines: Wines Of Ukraine Tasting Evening

Wines Of Ukraine Tasting Evening


Winemaking is not really something we in the UK associate with Ukraine, particularly at the moment, but traditional, old wineries have been producing excellent quality wines for centuries. These days, Ukraine is home to over 150 wineries, with the majority located in the South. Ukrainian wine is gaining recognition and popularity internationally, with several producers winning awards at highly regarded international wine competitions. The winemaking industry in Ukraine is growing, focusing on quality over quantity with a return to traditional wine making techniques.

Cellar Door Wines are delighted to be hosting this unique wine tasting at Cellar Door Wines in St Albans, with Ukrainian wine representative Tania Olevska. We will discover hidden gems from multiple world class wine producers across the country.

The tasting line up:

Kolonist Bisser Brut White Aged Sparkling Wine
Villa Tinta Premium Collection Irsai Oliver 2022
Beykush Albariño 2022
Kolonist Riesling 2022
Stakhovsky Wines Saperavi Ace 2021
Villa Tinta VIP Wine Selection Odesa Black 2019
Biologist Intriga Red 2021

This is a very special opportunity to explore the wine regions and native grape varieties of Ukraine and support the wine producers who are continuing to make brilliant wines, despite their current challenges.

Your ticket includes delicious sharing platters of cheese, charcuterie and savoury snacks. Please contact Penny and Geraldine directly if you have any allergies or dietary requirements. sales@cellardoorwines.co.uk.
