Terroir

Back in the twentieth century, it was known that the soil and climatic conditions of the Volga region allow growing high-quality grapes throughout its territory not only table grapes, but also valuable technical varieties for cooking juices, high-quality wines and champagne wine materials. The temperature regime of the growing season of our region is very favorable for growing top-grade grapes with a high sugar content in berries and wort. The sum of active temperatures even in the northern regions is 2700-2900. The Volga summer is characterized by an abundance of heat and is not inferior to such classic regions of winemaking as Crimea, Central Asia, Georgia, Moldova. A large number of warm days allows the cultivation of high-quality crops of early grape varieties in the northern regions, as well as any, even the latest varieties, in the southern regions of the region.
