Project Description
Krasnodar region 2021
12 — 19 October 2021
Krasnodar region is a special land for wine production in Russia that is expanding from day to day.
Gelendzhik, Anapa, Novorossiysk and Taman are becoming the new winemaking centres. Autochthonous and classic grape varieties successfully ripen in these warmed limestone soils.
We will taste senior public officials’ favourite wines, we will see innovative factories and traditional production of the region. We will also take a yacht tour around the Black Sea, we will make a picnic in the middle of a lavender field and go on a boat trip around the Lotus Lake. You have never seen Krasnodar region this way before!
Krasnodar region is famous for its generosity. Natural resources, viticulture traditions and impressive investments – this all is sufficient to make wine worth global rewards and certainly worth your attention.

WE WILL DISCOVER:
— why French winemakers are keen on Krasnostop and Saperavi;
— how soil, wind and landscape of different regions determine mineral charachter and full-bodied type of wine;
— why they listen to Ludovico Einaudi in ‘Usadba Divnomorskoye’ while contemporary works of art are exhibited in the ‘Golubitskoe estate’;
— why wine is aged in concrete tanks and why barrels made of Caucasus oak are a good option.
