Inside Ukraine’s wartime wine industry
Al Jazeera publishes a feature-reportage on the Ukrainian wine industry during the war, with Beykush as one of the central subjects of the piece. The winery’s flagship blend Kara Kermen is highlighted separately. The article includes a key quote about the 2022 and 2023 harvests already being gathered under shelling and to the whistle of rockets over the vineyards. Also featured is the Artania bar in Kyiv, which Beykush opened in late 2022 during the power blackouts — a symbol of resilience and the continuation of cultural life. The piece gives an international audience a deep understanding of the realities of Ukrainian winemaking during wartime.
