The
Çobo Winery is located in the region of Berat. It is a wine production facility
just 20 minutes before getting to Berat. The Çobo Winery is scenically nestled
at the base of Mt. Tomorr in the rolling hills that surround the city of Berat.
Çobo's facilities currently consist of several cultivated vineyards, a spacious
kulla (a form of traditional Albanian house), the winery itself, and a wine
presentation room, elegantly constructed and furnished in the style of the
traditional houses of Berat. The Çobo family have started their wine production
about 20 years ago and now the Çobo winery is the top brand among the
"Made in Albania" wines.
This is a family business which aims to
continue making wine in the traditional ways.
If you visit the Çobo Winery, you can enjoy an extensive viewing of the
wine making process and detailed explanations, punctuated by alternating
poignant and comic anecdotes that paint a glowing picture of the family's
history and the origins of their wines. Guests are invited to share a glass of
wine and exchange stories with a member of the Çobo family while enjoying a
variety of homemade Albanian cheeses and locally-grown olives.
