- Bright aromas of redcurrants, cherry, and red berries lead to a textured and mouth-filling palate with vibrant fruit-forward flavours and a deliciously satisfying finish. The grapes were destemmed, crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks to retain the fruity aromatics. When fermentation was complete, the young wine was pressed off its skins in a pneumatic press and underwent malolactic conversion on its lees, softening the palate. The wine was cold stabilised, filtered and bottled with minimal sulphur.

Winery | Kratoshija (pronounced Krat-oss-SHEE-yah) is a native grape with a long history in the Republic of North Macedonia and the exact genetic origins of the Italian Primitivo variety. The Tikve vineyards are sustainably cultivated, with 80% of the vines planted on the slopes of hillside plots with east or south-easterly orientation. The vines are double Guyot trained and planted in well-drained clay soils rich in carbonates, naturally encouraging high yields. Green harvesting takes place to reduce the yields and concentrate the flavours in the grapes. The grapes are manually harvested when they have reached optimal ripeness and maturity and are transported immediately to the winery. |
