About the event
Surrounded by four small lakes in a unique karst landscape, the vineyards benefit from a distinctive terroir that enhances the quality of the fruit. The estate is committed to organic viticulture and preserving the natural environment. This is reflected in their care for the land and its role as an animal sanctuary, fostering biodiversity alongside vine growth. The event will be hosted by Tim Yule from DMG.
