About Luda Mara
Luda Mara is named for the Luda Mara river that runs through the Tikveš wine region, and is made in two varietal expressions: a Temjanika white and a Vranec red. The Temjanika is a dry, aromatic white with elderflower, acacia, grape and lime notes, crisp acidity and a light body; the Vranec is a dark-purple red with intense blackberry and blue-plum aromas lifted by dry Mediterranean herbs, full-bodied with high, ripe tannins and flavours of ripe cherry, blackcurrant and pomegranate on a long finish. Tikveš describes the line as a recently renewed part of its portfolio built around the region's two most planted native and adapted varieties.

About the owner: Tikveš
Tikveš is a publicly listed company headquartered in Kavadarci, North Macedonia, founded in 1885. Brandtree records 5 brands under its control, and it is listed as MSE: TKVS.
Tikveš was founded in 1885 in Kavadarci, in what it describes as the first Balkan winery to make wine from its own vineyards, was nationalised in 1947 under Yugoslavia and reprivatised in 2003 when it was bought by M6 Investments, controlled by Svetozar Janevski, who chairs the company's management board today. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development held a minority stake from 2008 before selling it back to M6 some years later. The winery now processes around 55 million kilograms of grapes a year into roughly 35 million litres of wine across 24 wine types, sold in the Balkans, the European Union, Russia, Ukraine, North America and Australia, and trades on the Macedonian Stock Exchange as TKVS.
