Myskhako

Myskhako

Novorossiysk, Krasnodar 🇷🇺

One year before Tsar Alexander II decreed Abrau-Durso's creation, Fyodor Geyduk founded Myskhako in 1869—making it Russia's third-oldest winery. The estate survived 156 years of imperial collapse, Soviet collectivization, and privatization decline before Alexei Sidyukov's 2021 acquisition modernized the Soviet-era infrastructure.

Founded 1869 (one year before Abrau-Durso—Russia's third-oldest winery)
Revenue $15-25M (estimated)
Scale 5M bottles annually from 266 hectares
Unique Edge 156 years of political transitions until 2021 acquisition—patient capital modernized Soviet infrastructure

Fyodor Geyduk’s 1869 founding predates Russia’s most famous imperial winery by one year, giving Myskhako (Мысхако) 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.## Research in Progress
