WhAT IS THE GUIDE?
Wines from Central and Eastern Europe have a long and rich history and in the last decade they have exponentially increased in quality. These countries offer the wine world important points of difference: unique stories, different terroirs and a fabulous mix of international and indigenous varieties.
Despite increasing awareness of these wine-producing nations in international markets, there is still so much to introduce to a new audience. This will be the first English language wine guide dedicated to wines currently in the market with detailed tasting notes and scores.
This wine guide will bring attention to the outstanding wines in these regions on an annual or biennial basis. Producers can use the reviews and points to promote their wines both domestically and abroad.
