Artania — Our Wine Bar in Kyiv

A bar and a space for wine in Podil. Everything we make at Beykush, plus the wines of winemakers beyond our coast.

A space for Ukrainian wine

We opened Artania on 31 December 2022 — in Kyiv, in the middle of the blackouts, running on generators. It didn't look like the right moment: war, no electricity, people counting every hryvnia. That was exactly why we opened. Small Ukrainian wineries had lost the festivals where they'd been selling wine for years. The usual sales channels were barely working. Someone had to give them a shelf in the capital.

That's how Artania came to be — not a tasting room attached to a winery, but a showcase for Ukrainian wine. You'll find our Beykush bottles here, and beside them the wines of colleagues we share this harvest and this country with.

“This is a bar for small craft winemakers. It's hard for them right now. We want to put a spotlight on what they do, let our guests taste their wines and take them home.”
— Svitlana Tsybak, Executive Director, Beykush Winery

What you'll find at Artania

Every Beykush bottle

Everything currently in our catalogue. By the glass, by the bottle to take away, or to the table.

Rare and experimental

The wines we usually don't release at retail: small lots, experimental blends, older vintages from our cellar. Some of them we've never made again — and won't.

Craft Ukrainian wineries

Wines from the makers we're friends with: small estates in Zakarpattia, Odesa, Crimea before the occupation, Kherson. Indigenous grapes, new experiments — the kind of bottles you'd usually only find at a festival or at the maker's own door.

Three glasses for tasting at Artania bar in the evening

Tastings, every evening at 7 PM

Every evening at 7 PM we run a tasting. Usually four to six wines on a single theme: one winery, one grape in different hands, a fresh vintage — the format shifts. Each pour comes with a short story from the people who made it, and a few words on why it's on our shelf.

Reservations by phone — the table is small, the groups are small. Tastings run about an hour and a half.

What goes with the wine

The menu at Artania is uncomplicated and deliberate: we don't want food to argue with the wine. A plate of Ukrainian cheeses, charcuterie from regional producers, Italian olives, simple snacks. Sometimes unexpected pairings — Belgian-style potato pancakes (draniki) with cured pork. For dessert, Belgian waffles with Nutella or banana. For the afternoon, espresso and a few cappuccinos.
