The Vrh, Jama, Teza, Hrib and Pri reki vineyard sites extend from the Kožbanjšček stream, past our winery in the middle of the hill, all the way to the top of a hill called Čisto. Thus, our vines are planted at altitudes of 90 to 140 meters above sea level. The Pikol and Burdin sites are cultivated in the neighboring village of Neblo, only 2.5 km away from our winery. The dominant soil structure is opoka, layers of marl and sandstone, which were formed during the Eocene period, when the Brda Mountains were flooded by the sea. The presence of the sea can still be felt today in the wind from the south, and at night we are cooled by a gust from the north, where the Alps outline the horizon. The soil is poor, but at the same time rich in minerals, which give the wine a special touch. The hilly landscape and the correct orientation of the central axes of the vineyards offer excellent conditions for the growth of local and international varieties. We have planted our vineyards with varieties such as Rebula, Malvasia, Sauvignon Vert, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris among the whites and Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc among the reds. We work with pleasure in our vineyards and take care of them so that they give us only the best. We work in them sustainably, making sure that the vineyards are full of life because we believe that only in this way will the vineyard live a long and healthy life. The vineyards are covered with grass and occasionally, as needed, we cultivate them to introduce the necessary organic matter into the soil. In addition to the grapevine, there are many other plants and animals in them, which indicate a diverse biodiversity.
