Winery: Memel Wine

Offers

Memel Wine is a small boutique-style winery that produces exceptional quality, handcrafted and limited-edition wine. We have only one goal: to use manual labour and local raw materials to make the highest quality wine that we can be proud of and that will be appreciated by others.

Upon arrival at the winery, you will learn about the winemaker and his family history. The wine, named after the city of Memel, is made according to an old recipe inherited from ancestors. This recipe is said to have been passed down from generation to generation, and its origin goes back as far as the times of the Crusaders. Years of experience and passion for winemaking have allowed us to create a unique wine, famous for its excellent flavour and aroma. The winemaker has been awarded a national heritage product certificate.

During the educational tour, you will have a unique opportunity to visit the winery and see the wine production up close.

All varieties of wine produced in the winery paired with homemade aged cheese will be available for tasting. You will be able to taste and choose your favourite ones. After the tasting, you will have the opportunity to purchase the wines you liked best, as well as souvenirs.

The tasting will also include wine stories and discussions on the topic of national winemaking.

The duration of wine tasting is one to three hours. We accept up to 50 visitors at a time. Advance booking is required. We conduct tastings in Lithuanian and English.

We may also organise exclusive private wine tastings at the time and place of your choice.
