Kolonist Odessa Black
$29.99
“Kolonist” represents Plachkov family’s pride, the result of their ongoing devotion and the expression of love and passion for the land and its generosity. The Plachkov family founded their own winery in 2005 in order to produce premium local wines.
Kolonist winery is situated in a famous Ukrainian wine producing region – Danubian Bessarabia (the South of Odessa region), where viticulture has been established since the Greeks and the Thracians first discovered these fertile soils.
Kolonist wines are made from grapes grown on the eastern slopes of the biggest fresh-water lake in Ukraine – Yalpug. Due to the slopes, vineyards receive double sun rays from the sun and reflected ones from the surface of the lake, they are also well blown around with the winds. 33 hectares of vines are pruned by the Guyot and Cordon methods, grow on the loam soils which are rich in minerals with deep layers of lime. This modern pruning systems provide low crop capacity, which in combination with with special terroir give high-quality grapes. Each grapevine bears only a few bunches (harvested manually) which has rich flavour and gives wine strength, harmony and elegancy. Geographical position at the same latitude with Bordeaux in France and Piedmont in Italy gives an excellent opportunity to grow grapes in perfect climate conditions.
The importer donates a portion of profits from this wine to war relief funds.
