Amphora Rkatsitely 2022 Beykush
Indulging in this especial Orange wine is reaching back to the Graeco-Roman worlds of Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. Their wines would have been stored in Amphora.These pottery vessels enhance fermentation and maturation. Such abilities are now being appreciated with Amphora Wines produced in growing quantities. This version uses a Rkatsitely varietal that is ideal for the Amphora grapes month-long skin contact. The results are an eye-appealing golden colour, smoky and spicy bouquet, tannic backbone and powerful aftertaste. KHAIRE as Alexander would greet the wine and SALUTE as would Julius Caesar!

Villa Tinta Merlot 2021
This is flavoursome, round and voluptuous typifying the French varietal’s qualities of being low in tannins and high in sugars. Yet, although soft and subtle, it is well-structured having strong red colour, grapey substance and lengthy aftertaste. Its alluring bouquet is herbaceous and results in part from early budding and flowering. It is an ideal accompaniment to white meats as Duck and Pork.

Villa Tinta Pinot Grigio 2023
This offering is an exceptional and elegant example of Pinot Grigio. It intriguingly contrasts with the well-known clean-tasting Italian version. This Ukrainian product, however, exhibits the ripeness of a German spatlese – being pleasingly honeyed and mellow with an apricot aroma. Late picking of the grapes gives a deep texture to savour and lingering juicy finish. It is a wine for assertive fish as Sea Bream and Tuna but equally is a good match for Chicken. It will also enjoyably accompany many sweet desserts

Beykush Chardonnay 2023
This elegant offering exemplifies why Chardonnay is so easy to appreciate and globally popular. A selective hand-picking of grapes gives appealing qualities. The aroma is piercingly intense. Alcohol by volume is a deep 13%. Tasting reveals a positive and fresh minerality that is much aided by the wines being unoaked. It well matches White Fish as Cod, Lemon Sole and Plaice and equally is a suitable accompaniment to Salads.

Rose Pinot Noir Krayina Mriy
This Rose is a characterful counter to the frequent opinion that Roses are so often just cheerful and quaffable. An immediate tasting impression is of resolute power resulting from lengthy maceration. Skin contact in the vinification process has created a product that equals the strength and flavour of highly-regarded deep-pink Spanish Clarete Roses. An excellent food match for ocean fish as Tuna and Swordfish

Telti-Kuruk 2022 Beykush
This engaging white varietal grape is Ukrainian indigenous, individual and intense. This intensity gives a compelling combination of pear and pineapple aromas and flavoursome fruity palate. With a gold-tinged colouration it has eye appeal. It can be drunk alone enjoyably but is an excellent food pairing. Low in oiliness fish such as Salmon and Smoked Haddock are ideal. It equally matches well with lighter meats as Veal and Chicken. This wine deserves international recognition

Really enjoyed this subtly flavoured, fresh and sharp wine with a very slight acidity, would be great for fish and white meat dishes but also passes as a drinking wine

Villa Tinta Premium Collection Irsai Oliver 2022
A bright zesty white wine from an indigenous grape variety. It is comparable to a more fuller-bodied Loire Muscadet, being ideal as a meal pairing for fish. Its freshness especially complements the nutty taste and flaky texture of such seafood choices as prawns, oysters and mussels. With citric and spicy flavours it is also a good accompaniment to chicken.

Beykush Pinotage 2023- we had as accompaniment to a Guinea Fowl which has white meat and delicate flavours. So the fruitiness and depth of the wine was ideal, being agreeably contrasting. There is enough softness and aroma, however, to make it very acceptable as a wine to be drunk on its own and not as an accompaniment.

Clean and refreshing with herbal characteristics that are very strong in the aftertaste. It's a perfect accompaniment to fish. This is particularly so with Mackerel. Being smoked, this is dark and oily and contrasts well with the refreshing qualities of the wine. Clean-tasting it's a good party wine also.

Enjoyably deep and complex version of this varietal. Purple in colour it has many qualities similar to a California Zinfandel. Strong notes of Summer Sun and Autumn richness. The mouthfeel is satisfyingly rich and the aroma is that of ripe berry fruits. It was an excellent accompaniment to an Oxtail meal where the meat, after hours of cooking, is succulent.

Ukraine Odessa Black 2019 Red Villa Tinta
This wine has much of the personality of its Cabernet Sauvignon grape basis with a concentration of phenolics. These give deep-red texture and blackcurrant colour and flavour.It seems an ideal accompaniment to medium-bodied red meats. It was a good tasting match for a Pork meal with cream sauce.

Not filtering results in an intriguing offering. The residual yeasts and grape particles give an individual texture and an intriguing taste. Sukholimanske is a native varietal that seems ideal for its purpose as it has richness in body and power in aromas. It was a fitting match with a Salmon dish as this is distinctively full of proteins and fatty acids.

An interesting version of an internationally popular grape. Enjoyable depth of grape fruitiness. This gives it a great mouthfeel and it was a fitting accompaniment to a highly flavoursome Haddock and Monkfish casserole.
