SAVE THE DATE

On April 17, 2025, the Ukrainian restaurant Mriya together with Kolonist winery is hosting a wine dinner. You will have 5 courses specially made to pair 5 Kolonist wines. Alla Plachkova, a winery co-owner, will personally show the wines, will tell the secrets of winemaking, will share many tips about wine serving and wine pairing, will tell the story of the winery and the Plachkov family.

LONDON CALLING

For almost 20 years Kolonist mission has been to spread the word about wine-making Ukraine and to prove that Ukraine is producing the wines we can be proud of!

Due to numerous requests, we are repeating the Wine Dinner with Kolonist Winery’s co-owner! (Last time, we sold out within one day!)

Prepare to be amazed by the unique terroir and the latest European equipment used to produce Kolonist wines. The traditional barriques made of 100-year-old French oak add a distinct flavour, giving Kolonist every right to be proud of the high quality of its wines.

Be among the first to experience the Rosé Brut, crafted using the classic méthode champenoise — elegant, refined, and fresh.

To end the evening on a high note, savour Kolonist porto — a fortified sweet red wine aged for four years in oak barrels. Imagine liquid chocolate with rich aromas of caramel, roasted sugar, tobacco, and cognac. A perfect final touch to an unforgettable evening!

Some Kolonist bottles will be available to buy on spot after the event. Alla Plachkova will be happy to sign a bottle for you if you’d like to bring one home.
