Established in 2005 on the sunlit slopes above Lake Yalpug in southern Ukraine, Kolonist spans 33 hectares in the historic region of Danubian Bessarabia. The winery blends native varieties like Sukholymanskyi and Odeskyi Black with classic European grapes, producing refined wines under the guidance of Bordeaux oenologist Olivier Dauga. Its elegant, low-yield approach has earned Kolonist international acclaim and a strong presence across Europe’s diplomatic and fine dining circles.
Villa Tinta
Produced by family-owned Winehall Oksamytne in the village of Oksamytne, Villa Tinta is rooted in the historic lands of southern Ukraine where Count Davidoff once had his winemaking château. With 500 hectares of vineyards between Lake Yalpug and the Karakurt River, the estate produces a wide range of international and local grapes, with a focus on regional stars Sukholymanskyi and Odesa Black.
The venue features a refined restaurant, four exclusive private dining rooms, the distinguished Hine Bar, an extensive whisky and wine selection, a sophisticated Cigar Lounge and an inviting Heated Garden Terrace - making it a haven for discerning patrons seeking the finest in dining, music and atmosphere.
