In Ukraine, there is an ancient, glorious, and fascinating history of winemaking that dates back nearly 2,000 years. The SHABO Wine Culture Center is a wonderful place to experience this firsthand. Two-hundred-year-old Swiss cellars, modern art installations, museums, cinemas, a musical fountain, professional tastings, and large-scale production – the SHABO Wine Culture Center has plenty to impress you!
Since 2009, this place has provided everyone with the opportunity to see where noble beverages are created and to feel like a part of Ukrainian winemaking.

The Art of Opening a Qvevri
UAH 850 per person (for small groups)
Duration: 1 hour
Available by prior reservation only

SHABO was one of the first major wine houses in Ukraine to adopt the Kakhetian winemaking method on a large scale, making it an integral part of contemporary wine culture.
✔ Qvevri Hall — a place where time works in harmony with nature. Here, wine matures in clay qvevri using the Kakhetian method, a winemaking tradition dating back more than 8,000 years.
✔ The Qvevri Opening Ceremony — witness a rare moment when, after an extended ageing period, a qvevri is opened and the wine is revealed for the first time.
✔ A World Not Open to Everyone — as the qvevri is opened, discover the world of Kakhetian winemaking, its traditions, symbolism, and subtle details that usually remain hidden from visitors.
A Unique Experience
This is not an everyday tour, but a special event that takes place only when the wine is ready to be revealed. That is what makes every qvevri opening truly unique.
