Posted on Tue 8th Dec 2015 at 12:29
We are delighted to note that wine guru and MW Jancis Robinson has selected the Stobi Vranec 2011 as one of her top picks for this Christmas.
She comments, “My suggestions for seriously exciting red wines to drink and serve this festive season will be wide ranging. Let me start with acknowledgment of the whirlwind of western investment from which eastern European wine production has been benefiting." She goes on to say, " Some very fine wines are to be found in unlikely corners. Stobi Vranec 2011 Tikves is superbly mature and would cost twice as much if it came from somewhere more mainstream than the republic of Macedonia. It was blended, obviously skilfully, by my fellow Master of Wine Caroline Gilby, a specialist in matters vinous and eastern European.” You can also read tasting notes on Stobi wines by Jancis Robinson here.
