Production

"Aged in a 400-litre Spanish ceramic amphora for one month, this wine is focused and bright, yet possesses depth. It exudes the aroma of white flowers, garden herbs, Earl Grey tea, beeswax, nuts, lemon peel and quince. Approachable and youthful, it captures the essence of a sunlit garden, beautifully blending structure and terroir" - Lilla O'Connor, Decanter Magazine February 2024

History

Vine-growing and wine-making farm “Vynhol Oksamytne” was founded in 1998 in the village of Velvet of the Bolhrad district of the Odesa region on the territory where Count Davydov’s vineyard chateau was located 120 years ago.  

For more than 15 years, our winery produced wines familiar to many consumers, bottled under the brands of other well-known brands. Since 2017, the company has decided to enter the Ukrainian market with its own brands.

This is how Villa Tinta® – a collection of dry ordinary wines from local and European grape varieties, Tintarella® – sparkling wines made using Sharma technology and Tinta® – semi-sweet blended wines appear.  In 2018, our company, together with the winemakers of the Yalpug valley, participated in the creation of one of the first PDO Yalpug geographical indications in Ukraine for wines from the Odessa Black and Sukholimansky varieties and the PGI of the same name for wine from European grape varieties.

Kadarka is a very interesting grape. Most often used in Bikaver (Bulls Blood) blends, it can also produce distinctively vibrant, pale and juicy - even chillable - red wines such as this.

Tasting Notes

With a beautiful vibrant colour this wine has characteristic spicy notes on the nose along with crushed red berry fruit. Gentle handling of this dark skinned grape has resulted in a crisp and juicy pale red that is very quaffable .
