In Crimea, they talked about the rapid development of viticulture against the backdrop of sanctions
The price of Crimean wines will increase slightly in the near future, taking into account the rise in prices for energy resources, fuel and other components of production.
Alime Zaredinova, First Deputy Minister of Agriculture of Crimea, reported this on Radio Crimea, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“A slight increase in prices is predicted, given that energy resources and all components in the production cycle are becoming more expensive - from planting vineyards to producing the wine itself. Therefore, of course, the price will rise by a small percentage,” she noted.
According to the deputy minister, the viticulture industry receives the maximum possible state support in the form of subsidies and grants in order to reduce the financial burden on agricultural producers, so that when determining the final price of the product, the costs of winemakers do not affect the consumer. At the same time, the popularity of Crimean wines, taking into account the emergence of new production facilities, suggests that there is a great demand for these products. The departure of imported wines from the shelves led to their replacement with domestic ones, including Crimean ones.
“The positions are rising. Specialists from Roskachestvo say that every year Crimean wines improve their quality, and the range of participants in the competition is expanding,” the deputy minister emphasized. “The new wineries that are opening are very popular chateaus, focusing on dry wines, and sparkling wines and champagne have become very popular lately.”
Next year they plan to plant at least 1 thousand hectares of new vineyards in Crimea. The geography of planting new plantings is not limited only to the southern coast of Crimea. Table grape varieties are planned to be grown in the Leninsky and Dzhankoy districts.
