The wine region of Metohija
Kosovo is a region of south-eastern Europe, once an autonomous province within the former Yugoslavia. Until the outbreak of civil war, Kosovo had a substantial area of productive vineyards. Many were then abandoned, and the industry is still in the early stages of recovery. This is a disputed land, claimed as sovereign territory by Serbia but seen as independent by the ethnic Albanian majority who live there.
The word of the wine: Varietal wine
Name given to the local wine (IGP), produced from a single grape variety that gives the wine its characteristics of structure and aroma. The Languedoc is the leading producer of this type of wine, from most of the major French grape varieties.
