Founded in 1996 in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, Odessa region, Akkerman Distillery is today one of the largest wineries in Ukraine and a new interesting player in the Ukrainian wine market.


The wine history of this region dates back to ancient times, when six hundred years BC the ancient Greeks founded the first colonies in the Northern Black Sea.

To its potential, the Odessa region is able to compete with Bordeaux, Piedmont, Champagne and the Rhine Valley. The uniqueness of the Odessa terroir is conditioned by the influence of continental and maritime climate, salt estuaries and rich southern black earths. About 250 sunny days a year, most of the region lies within the so-called "wine latitude".

The Odessa region presented the world with unique local grape varieties and is ideally suited for growing classic European varieties: Chardonnay, Muscat, Traminer, Cabernet, Bastardo, Pinot Noir and others. And the city of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, which is located south of Odessa, is the historic homeland of winemaking in the Odessa region.
