Choose a region to read its guide, then move closer through its named subregions.
- 01AlmatyNo producers listed yetAlmaty's vineyards range across continental plains and mountain slopes, in a climate of hot, dry summers and cold winters. Near Almaty, Assa Valley offers a distinct setting: vineyards at about 1,000 metres beneath the snow-covered Tian Shan, where an older wine-growing tradition is being rediscovered.
- 02JambylNo producers listed yetJambyl is one of Kazakhstan's southern wine regions, with a sharply continental, arid temperate climate. It is a broad administrative region rather than a single vineyard zone, separate from Almaty's Asa Valley, the country's main wine valley, and was included in a 2000 plan to rehabilitate wine production.
- 03Turkistan South KazakhstanNo producers listed yetTurkistan South Kazakhstan is a wine region in Kazakhstan. A vineyard in Turkestan Province, near Uzbekistan, reports warm winters, hot summers that can reach 45-50°C, and plenty of clear, sunny days.
