Khovrenko Wine Museum in Samarkand: the history of taste and traditions
The Dmitry Khovrenko Museum of Winemaking in Samarkand is a place where the history of Uzbekistan's wine—making traditions comes to life. Founded more than a century ago, this winery has become not only a symbol of high quality products, but also a cultural monument. 🍷
The history of the museum begins in 1868, when the Russian merchant Dmitry Khovrenko founded a winery here. Later, in Soviet times, the company became famous far beyond the region due to its unique varieties of wines created on the basis of local grape varieties. Today, the museum tells about the evolution of winemaking and the preservation of traditions carefully passed down from generation to generation. 📜
The museum's exposition includes antique tools for winemaking, rare photographs and documents telling about the development of the industry. Visitors can see how famous wines were created and learn the secrets of production. Of course, the highlight of the visit is the tasting, where guests can taste legendary varieties such as Aliberne or Gulistan. 🏺
We offer convenient services for organizing individual and group tours to the wine museum, as well as transfers from your place of stay in Samarkand. A journey into the world of taste and history will be an unforgettable part of your trip to Uzbekistan.
There was an individual tasting. I really liked the drinks produced by this factory. I bought Evening Samarkand balm with me. In general, I advise everyone to try pomegranate wine very tasty, they do not carry it to us.
That's great! We got to the tasting - 300 thousand soums per person. The sommelier told about the history of the factory, tasted 10 types of wines, cognacs and balsam. All are of local and Uzbek origin!
