The settlement was founded on November 25, 1870 as a royal winery which was to provide wine for the 's household. These plans were brought to fruition twenty-one years later, when Prince , renowned for his Crimean vineyards of and , was appointed Surveyor of Imperial Vineyards at Abrau-Dyurso. It was he who brought to Russia a team of skilled winemakers from France. By 1897, Abrau-Dyurso boasted champagne cellars containing in excess of 13,000 bottles.

The Russian Revolution of 1917 brought an end to Abrau-Dyurso's prosperity, if only for a short time. The French specialists fled Russia, but their work was continued by their Russian apprentices.
