About local Macedonian vineyards
Did You Know?
Macedonia’s love affair with wine stretches back over 3,000 years, making it one of the oldest winemaking regions in Europe. The country’s sunny climate and fertile soil are perfect for nurturing unique grape varieties like Vranec, a bold red whose name translates to “black stallion”, and Temjanika, a fragrant white that smells like a basket of wildflowers.
What makes these vineyards extra special is their family-run nature — many of them passed down through generations, with each bottle telling a story. Locals proudly claim their wine is so good, it can fix a broken heart, settle a dispute, or turn strangers into lifelong friends. And if you’re brave enough to try a shot of homemade rakija between tastings… well, let’s just say you might leave with a few new dance moves too.
