When it comes to choosing wine in India, Sula is often the top pick, renowned for its quality and taste. India's wine scene has been evolving, with new and emerging brands making their mark. However, have you ever ventured beyond the grape? There's a fascinating world of fruit wines to explore, crafted using a process similar to traditional winemaking. Surprisingly, Meghalaya also boasts a range of fruit wines, now being promoted to boost local tourism.

Local fruit winemakers in Meghalaya:

Fruit wines, unlike grape wines, derive their unique flavors from a variety of fruits such as apples, pears, plums, cherries, and various berries. These delightful alternatives offer a taste akin to traditional grape wines. Typically crafted at home, Meghalaya's government aims to take these artisanal creations to a commercial level.

Meghalaya's Chief Minister, Conrad K. Sangma, recently unveiled an ambitious plan that encompasses the promotion of tourism, agriculture, entrepreneurship, and job opportunities. Central to this initiative is the support and promotion of local fruit winemakers within the state.
