Myskhako
🇷🇺 Novorossiysk, Krasnodar Krai
Founded in 1869 by Fyodor Geyduk—one year before Tsar Alexander II decreed Abrau-Durso's creation—Myskhako stands as Russia's third-oldest winery. After 156 years spanning imperial Russia, Soviet collectivization, and privatization decline, entrepreneur Alexei Sidyukov's 2021 acquisition injected modernization capital, transforming Soviet-era infrastructure into a revitalized 5-million-bottle operation with potential connections to Lefkadia Valley.
Fyodor Geyduk’s 1869 founding predates Russia’s most famous imperial winery by one year, giving Myskhako historical primacy few can claim. The 156-year continuous operation survived every Russian political transformation: imperial patronage, Soviet state control, post-Soviet privatization chaos, and modern consolidation.
