Some of the finest Indian red wines you need to have

In parallel to the wine culture in India evolving slowly but significantly, wineries make strides towards bringing newer, better bottles to our wine shelves.

 

India’s red wine market is expanding every day, and in the last couple of years, several domestic wines have been discovered that proved to be stellar in quality, and remarkable in taste. There has been a commendable growth in Indian wines, and while a new favourite gets added every so often, we want to take a moment to appreciate the ones we’ve loved so far.
