OUR STORY

It all started as a very personal fascination with the wine-making art that the founder,
a wine enthusiast from Skopje, has always had; everything else came as a completely
natural nowadays expression of the authentic Macedonian wine-making traditions.

From collecting wines from all over the globe, through the first vines planted and their
transformation into vineyards, through the foundations of the boutique winery
resembling a castle, and the first barriques in it, to the first wines bottled, and then
many more travelling around the world, some winning great awards, this man shared
his vision with a team of excellent people, and turned it into a quest called Kamnik
Wines, our creations combining past and future, now; keeping our story alive.
