1,200 hectares of our own vineyards and a modern technological complex are located in the south of Ukraine, in the village of Shabo, at the winemaking latitude of 46.6°. The unique terroir of this region inspired the founders of SHABO to produce the Great Wines of Ukraine.
Shabo is one of the oldest Ukrainian terroirs, its history dates back to more than 2,000 years. Located between the Dniester estuary and the Black Sea, offering perfect soils and climate, this region and its potential was highly appreciated by the Swiss colonists as early as 1822. They founded a wine-making settlement here, developing viticulture and winemaking in the region.
We believe that revival of our traditions and heritage is vitally important. We do our best to reveal the unique nature of our wines and terroir, and use the latest technologies to create our products.
The company facilities include SHABO Wine House, SHABO Sparkling Wine House and SHABO Brandy House. For many years we have been collaborating with Stéphane Derenoncourt, a renowned expert from France, in order to create wines of exceptional quality and style.
