The Tikves wine district, recognized as the most important quality vine growing region in Macedonia, is home of Tikves Winery. This is where the Mediterranean climate from the south meets the continental winds from the north, creating superb winegrowing conditions to produce fruit forward, lively, temperamental and complex wines. In average, we process 30.000 tonnes of grapes annually. Located over an area of 100.000 m², Tikves Winery currently employs 320 people and markets its wine throughout Macedonia and in over 15 foreign countries, making it the largest wine operation in Macedonia.
Bovin Winery is the first privately build winery in Macedonia. The company was established in 1998, the year when 120.000 bottles of high quality white and red wines were produced. It is these wines which Bovin was represented by on 1999 and 2000 at Agro-Expo Fair in Skopje where “Venus” earned the Champion title in the category of red wines, whereas all other wines were awarded gold medals.
