“Established in 1911, our wine cellar was built on hard ground by our great grandfather, Marko, with his family. He came back from America and started planting vineyards and developing a wine story. My dad and mom planted 6 hectares in total of different local and international grape varieties. I am the 4th generation in this story.
Natural and traditional ways are the only way we know. Knowledge acquired throughout the decades of winemaking, makes our wine usually gone in seconds. Our vineyards are located in a small picturesque place in Croatia, not far from the Dalmatian coast. Almost all of the territory is in a national park, River Krka, with beautiful scenery. We have a natural annual overlap of three different climates – mountain, continental, and Mediterranean. Breath taking nature… Visit us any time!”
