VWD, deserves to stand side by side with other world days when celebrating international varieties around the world. In the last decade, the trend of celebrating a particular variety has reciprocated with multiple benefits, the most notable being improved positioning and increased sales of “celebrated” wines on international markets. In addition, the increased recognition of the wine regions where Vranac/Vranec wines come from, will certainly open the doors to other varietal wines. Due to the event size and significance, several evolution stages are foreseen in the coming years, during which we expect to achieve international publicity with the ultimate goal of celebrating VWD worldwide.
On October 5th, 2019, the first stage of celebration begins in Republic of North Macedonia, as the largest wine producer of this variety.

Given the importance of the event for the Macedonian and the regional wine industry, we expect a large number of wineries from our country and the region, to be present, including world wine experts and companies involved in the wine sector, as well as representatives of the diplomatic corps in the country and state institutions.

This year the event will take place on October 5, 2019 at the Hilton Hotel (Double Tree) in Skopje.

Attendees: international wine experts, regional guests and media, representatives of the Foreign Embassies in the Republic of North Macedonia, government representatives, Vranec/Vranac wine producers from Macedonia and the region and domestic and regional wine lovers.
