Grape varietal & region: The Tikveš wine sub-region is situated on the same longitude as Toscana in Italy, Bordeaux in France and the Napa valley in the USA. It is one of the biggest regions in Macedonia by square area and it is situated at latitude of 41-42˚. The climate is mixed, Continental-Mediterranean. The south of the Tikveš region is dominated by a Mediterranean climate featuring long and hot summers.
The Tikveš region is “protected” on three sides by mountains which prevent the northern winds from reaching the vineyards. The following types of soil prevail in the Tikveš region: Rendzina, Vertisol, deluvial, alluvial soil and Terra Rosa.
Taste profile: Tikves Rkatsiteli astounds by its extremely delicate flavours of pear and peach and its perfect balance between freshness and strength makes it ideal for any drinking occasion. The crisp acidity and fresh notes is perfect for any summer day. It has a medium body with a very pleasant finish.
