Of its time and timeelleess

Joseph Brodsky once wrote that the best view of St. Petersburg was from the seat of a bomber plane, referring to the distinct geometry of the city’s avenues and canals. However, it is only from street level that you can gain a true appreciation of the city’s architectural details, which have looked on impassively as successive generations of locals and visitors have walked by.

In Russia, the first vineyards appeared at roughly the same time, on the Eastern coast of the Kerch Strait. This coincidence shouldn’t be surprising: vines were brought there by Greek settlers who were actively colonising the North of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea coast and introducing their lifestyle to the newly built cities.
