The tasting is accompanied by a selection of light local starters that perfectly complement the drinks.
All wines and raki are produced by a local winery from the Berat region, offering guests an authentic taste of the area’s winemaking traditions and local craftsmanship. While enjoying the tasting, you will be surrounded by the unique atmosphere of Mangalem, with beautiful views of Berat’s historic old town and its famous hillside houses.
