Winerys

Aleksandrovic

The Aleksandrović winery is located on the hills of Oplenac. These hillsides have historically been used as arable land for growing wine grapes. The Aleksandrovic winery has its roots and it’s name from the current owner’s great-grandfather Miloš Aleksandrović, who was one of the founders of The Co-operative of Winegrowers of Vencac in 1903. The Co-operative of Winegrowers of Vencac was established in the village of Banja near Topola, and it’s founding marked a crucial moment in the historical development of modern Serbian viticulture. This was the first co-operative of winegrowers in Serbia, with King Petar I Karadjordjevic himself being among the first members of this Co-operative. A wine cellar belonging to both King Petar and Aleksandar Karadjordjevic was established at the same time and both kings helped spread the glory of Oplenac wines throughout Europe.

Tarpos

The name of the Tarpos winery fascinated me as soon as I heard it for the first time. Namely, "tarposh" is a type of women’s hat worn in Serbia [from the Middle Ages until the first decades of the 19th century], from which grapes were once offered to occasional travelers. Former wine merchants also said that a wine is so good that it can "be carried in a tarp". I was lucky enough to get a very good wine at this beautifully and somewhat mystically named winery, and further spread the story of this estate in the village of Vrbica near Arandjelovac and this winery in the heart of the vineyard "(Tihomir Timotijevic; from the interview for Put Vina magazine)

The King’s Winery

In 1923, King Aleksandar Karadjordjevic demonstrated his passion for viticulture by continuing the restoration of the vineyards of his ancestors in Oplenac. It was during this venture that he founded The King’s Winery, which was built in the middle of these royal vineyards, in the style of French cellars, in 1931. The winery currently produces wines exclusively from its own orchards, including Sauvignon blanc, Pinot blanc, Chardonnay, and Suveren (Cabernet sauvignon).

Etno Villages
