Photo and description

The Inkerman Vintage Wine Factory was founded on February 1, 1961. The plant was built on the basis of construction limestone in a closed way. The stone mined in these quarries was used to rebuild the buildings of Sevastopol destroyed during the Second World War. After the limestone mining was stopped, underground galleries up to 12 m high and 10-12 m wide, located at a depth of 5 to 30 m from the earth's surface, passed into the possession of the plant. Special barrels were installed in the galleries and the first brands of wines were laid for aging: "Cabernet Kachinskoe", "Aligote Zolotaya Balka", "White Crimean Port", "Red Crimean Port" and others. Rkatsiteli Inkermanskoe wine became the first brand of the factory.

Specialists who work at the Inkerman plant, passed practice at the Massandra winery and maintain the old traditions of wine making by aging in oak barrels for six months to five years.
