Place from which our vines draw their identity
Our vines have taken root so deeply in this unique terroir that they can reach and wake up the unknown parts of your palate.
CLIMATE AND POSITION
Sunny side of Papuk
Vineyards are planted on the southern slopes of Papuk, surrounded by forests, exposed to the sun and constant air flow, which significantly affects the quality of grapes.
Clusters of pure pleasure
Wines from the best Kutjevo micro-locations carry recognizable notes. Grapes for premium labels are ideal for long storage on the vine. These are mostly late or ice harvests. On Hrnjevac, due to the emphasized airiness, but also the great number of the sunny hours, there is a strong concentration of aromas in the berries. The grapes in these positions achieve an ideal balance of sugars and acids, and create the preconditions for the production of premium quality wine labels.
