An iconic Ukrainian wine will be included in the tasting "The Magnificent 12"


Wine Future, which this year will take place in the historic city of Coimbra, was created to analyze the challenges facing the world's wine sector, presenting solutions that can help professionals all over the planet. The wine industry is facing one of the most difficult times in its history and one of those major challenges is the war in Ukraine.


Wine Future includes three Masterclasses and tastings that will be presented by international experts. Mark Squires will conduct one of these Masterclasses entitled "The Magnificent 12", presenting 12 iconic wines from some of the most famous wine regions. In order to show solidarity with the Ukrainian wine industry and its workers, the Wine Future organization will include an iconic Ukrainian wine on this list, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon - Iukuridze Family Wine H.


The Iukuridze Family Wine Heritage is an exclusive collection of the founders of Shabo Winery. Under the supervision of the Iukuridze family, only the best vintages from the best years are selected. The Shabo region is one of the oldest Ukrainian terroirs and its history dates back more than 2,000 years.
