Description
The richness of the historical tourist and unusual offer of Niš is enriched by the development of wine tourism. Just a few kilometers from Nis, along the highway Nis Sofia, on the road of the Roman emperors, the Cellar Malča from 1903 represents a unique centuries-old synthesis of wine roads that crossed, passed, permeated and finally merged into a fairy tale worth mentioning. . The cellar tells this fairy tale through its unusual combination of tradition and culture of Roman emperors, Serbian rulers and old wine masters. Lovers of wine and history can experience the ""Journey through wine time"" in a unique place, visiting four wine houses from four different time epochs and getting to know so many ways of cultivating wine. Roman house - cellar with amphorae is the biggest attraction that will take you back to the distant past, to the heart of the wine story where you can try wines like the one that Emperor Constantine the Great drank. Amphoras are the oldest wine vessels from Georgia, which the Malča winery was the first to bring to Serbia and thus enriched the wine offer of our country. In eight clay amphorae of 2000 l each, buried in the ground, the wine macerates on the epidermis for a long time, creating unusual wines with unusual tastes. Nis and Serbia can boast that this year's winners are at the first international evaluation of wine from the amphora, which was held in Georgia. White wine Carica Jelena, won the gold medal with 90.8 points, while Constantine the Great - the red wine of the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot won the bronze medal. Nemanjića house - a cellar with wooden barrels in which September wines are produced. In the time of Nemanjić, September wines were drunk, so here you can try rosé wine from the autochthonous variety Crna Tamjanika. Serbian house from the middle of the 20th century - a cellar where wines are grown in concrete fermenters - where you can try the red semi-sweet wine Kalča, aged according to an old Nis recipe Contemporary Winery - where wines are nurtured using the latest technology in stainless steel fermenters, from which a premium line called ANONYMUS was born. The crown of the Malča wine complex is the end of the trip, a Roman-style restaurant where your enjoyment on the terrace surrounded by vineyards is complemented by dishes according to the recipes of our ancestors. There is also a shop of local wines, brandy and vinegar, from which you can extend your enjoyment even after your stay in the winery. Love creates everything, that's why Wine for Two was created right here, says the cordial team of the Malča Wine Cellar with a smile, who claims that his main goal is to produce happiness!
