Wines

Wine is one of the symbols of the Macedonian country. The secret of the taste of the Macedonian wines is in the sun, which in Central Macedonia, contributes to the taste of each and every grape seed.

Even though Macedonian wines might be new to many people, wine is not at all new to Macedonia. The country situated in the middle of Balkan Peninsula has been making wines from Ancient times. In this area, the wine used to be cultivated even 4,000 years ago. Many artifacts found on the ancient sites speak for the long tradition of grape growing. Part of these artifacts are drawings of grapes and vines carved in stone, marble and terracotta and can be seen in the museums in Macedonia, but a large number of these artifacts are now decorating the showcases of museums in Sofia, Belgrade, Berlin and others as well.
