Discovering Serbia

Following the Wine Routs of Serbia

 

The history of Serbian wine and brandy crafts dates back to more than a thousand years ago. Today, Serbia is one of the major producers of wine and spirits in South East Europe. It produces 700 types of wine, with Tamjanika, Smederevka and Prokupac being indigenous kinds. The quality wine is produced in a large number of small private wine sellers, as well as in big wineries. The natural diversity of climatic conditions in nine vineyard regions and sixty five vineyard valleys provide wines of Serbia with a special flavour, ranging from “wine from the sands” produced in Subotica Horgos region, through to the “two suns” wines of the Danube region (the sun from the sky and its reflection in the Danube). Wines from eastern Serbia are best represented by wines from Negotinska Krajina, just as unique taste of wines coming from Mt. Fruska Gora is highlighted in aromatic and sweet “Bermet” wine. Royal family Karadjordjevic cultivates wines in Oplenac region for generations. Nowadays, production capacity in Oplenac is huge and dominated by Prokupac, Vranac and Smederevka, indigenous varieties dominating the region. Mediterranean types of wines are grown widely in the south regions of Serbia.

While in Serbia do not miss to discover the Serbian Wine Routs and enjoy tasting various types of domestic wines.
