12 years old, one of the oldest wines I've tried. Colour is red-brownish, very light fruity smell, low acidity, mild dry wine, tastes like berry fruit with some vanilla flavour and traces of earth. Structured, complex, rich in secondary aromas, long subtle aftertaste. Balanced now, but I think it would lose on quality if saved for another few years. Definitely one of the most balanced, rounded wines I've tried. — 8 years ago

A blend of 50% each Plavec and Vranec from a single vineyard in Macedonia.
Inky purple/black color. Nose is all brambles and leaf with a backing of spicy plum skin. Volume is large, texture is rich, oily and firming on the finish. — 3 years ago

LONGING FOR THE SOUTH

Yesterday I drank this very nice Macedonian semi-dry T'ga za Jug red wine.

The wine is made of the native grape variety Vranec. It has an intense red color, and the distinctive taste of raisins and raspberries, which make it a nice sweet treat (hence: semi-dry).

The wine is named after the poem ‘Taga za Yug’ of the Bulgarian poet Konstantin Miladinov (1830–1862), one of the Miladinov brothers, who originate from Ottoman Macedonia. Both brothers are thought to have laid the foundation of the Macedonian literary tradition.

‘Taga za Yug’ means ‘longing for the South’ (el anhelo por el Sur): "If I had an eagle's wings, I would rise and fly on them to our shores, to our own parts [...] Here are frost and snow and ashes, blizzards and harsh winds abound [...] There the sunrise warms the soul".

When it is cold outside, and fiercely raining, I can assure you that it makes you long for the sun that warms the soul. Drinking the T'ga za Jug wine in good company and nice surroundings makes for a wonderful or sometimes even better alternative.

What a wine! Extraordinary deep purple color, great smell on plums and dark fruit, full-bodied, complex multi-layered taste, rather oaky (barrique) and wild, rough tannins, medium plus aftertaste. Powerful, rustical, wild. I like it! But it should be consumed with a rich meal. — 8 years ago
