About this WINE
Tikves
Tikves was founded in FYR Macedonia in 1885, and its wines were first produced in 1912. As with most of the Macedonian wine industry, they have benefitted from investment and innovation subsequent to independence from Yugoslavia, the current owners having purchased the enterprise in 2003, the original family firm having been nationalised in 1946, although the family remained involved.
Tikves is now the largest winery and spirit distiller in FYR Macedonia, following the merging of a number of wine and spirits cooperatives in the 1970s. The wines are made from both local and international varieties by a team that harnesses both local knowledge and international consultants. We are pleased to offer their single vineyard wines that express a sense of place with indigenous varieties.
Other Varieties
There are over 200 different grape varieties used in modern wine making (from a total of over 1000). Most lesser known blends and varieties are traditional to specific parts of the world.

Description
Winemaker Philippe Cambie has created a fascinating blend of the local Belan grape with Chardonnay. Textured, judiciously oaked and full-bodied, this would be a perfect accompaniment for veal or sea bass.
