Nasik as a wine capital of India.
Not many people are aware that a host of new wineries have come up in Maharashtra in the last two years, following the forward-looking 'Grape Processing Industrial Policy' of the state government announced in 2001. Most of the new vignerons are grape farmers who have invested from Rs 50 lakh to Rs 5 crores (from Rs 5 million to Rs 50 million) to set up their units. It all started with Sula -- the first winery in Nashik. They have recently increased capacity from 200 to 900 kl of wine annually. They make wines from grapes ('Made in India'), import wines in bulk and 'Bottle in India,' as well as have a portfolio of imported ('Bottled in Origin') wines from 10 different countries ranging in price from Rs 700/bottle (Astica, Hardy's) to Rs 5,000 (Greppone Mazzi Brunello di on talcino).  They've recently brought out a Dindori Reserve Shiraz (Rs 650/bottle) which is to die for: matured in wood for 12 months, the wine is mellow, smooth, fruity and spicy, and worth searching for as distribution is limited even in Mumbai. Sankalp Vineyards was the first winery in the Vinchur Wine Park (35 km from Nashik), and has a range of wines under the brand Vinsura (with a grapevine leaf on the label), all priced under
Rs 500/bottle in Mumbai.





Their Chenin Blanc is medium-bodied, crisp and fruity, while the Sauvignon Blanc is dry and herbaceous -- almost spicy; I thought the Rose (white Zinfandel) was simply delicious, while the Red Zinfandel Is a big, peppery, almost brashly complex wine. Their latest offering is a sweet dessert wine made from the Symphony (Muscat) grape. N D Wines is near Pimpalgaon, in the heart of the Nashik wine country. Beautifully located on the banks of a lake with rolling vineyards in every direction, this winery supplies much of the grapes and wine to better-known producers. while the Vintage Wines winery is still being completed, their first wines are likely be ready by October 2005 and will be different, as the owners are one of the few who have Successfully cultivated the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes in this region. Maharashtra itself has 23,000 hectares under grapes -- of which Only about 1,000 hectares are wine grapes -- so there's a huge growth potential.
