Tikveš Alexandria Cuvée Red 2022 – North Macedonian Red Blend | Buy Online in Singapore

About the Wine

Long before Western Europe became the centre of the wine world, the Balkan region had already spent millennia perfecting the craft. Tikveš, one of the oldest and most respected wineries in North Macedonia, carries this heritage with quiet confidence. The Alexandria Cuvée Red 2022 is a reflection of that lineage — a blend that unites international grapes with the region’s own deeply rooted varietal, Vranec. For Singapore drinkers, this wine offers the chance to rediscover a region whose story is rarely told, yet richly deserving of a place on the world stage.

Tasting Experience

Colour

Deep ruby with a gentle garnet rim.

Aroma

Redcurrant, red and black cherries, cinnamon spice, cedar, and hints of dry earth.

Palate

Plush blackcurrant and plum layered with cherry tobacco, toasted oak, and warm spice. Balanced, expressive, and smooth on the mid-palate with a lingering savoury undertone.

Body

Full-bodied with soft, integrated tannins and medium acidity.

Finish

Long and harmonious, echoing spice, dark fruit, and elegant oak.

Why This Wine Matters

This blend is built on Vranec, an ancient Balkan varietal that speaks to a heritage older than many renowned European appellations. In a Singapore market dominated by Bordeaux, Napa, and Barossa, Tikveš offers an alternative — a chance to taste authenticity from a region overlooked by mainstream wine culture. Alexandria Cuvée Red bridges value and provenance, giving drinkers a premium-quality wine that challenges assumptions while delivering depth, character, and remarkable drinkability.
