Vuglec Breg wine cellar was established in 2005 as an important feature of their rural tourism offer. The winery was planted on the southern slopes of the hill, where the remains of an abandoned vineyard used to stand.  In 2005 the family planted 16,000 new, high-quality grapevines. Their new vineyard occupies an area of about 4 hectares.

They keep the centuries old tradition of vine growing and winemaking with an aim to invest a lot of work and devotion into achieving the highest quality wines while highlighting their uniqueness in flavor and character.

Tasting their wine can be done in the cellar, or their restaurant for a fantastic view. Chardonnay, Rhein Riesling, Graševina, Sauvignon, Yellow Muscat, Silvaner wine, Pinot Noir, Blaufrankish, and Cabernet are all on made on-site.

Prirodno Pjenušavo vino is their natural sparkling wine, it’s a collaboration with Bodren Winery. That is their sparkling wine Jasminka, named by their oenologist Jasminka. Made traditionally this sparkling wine is 50% Chardonnay with a blend of Welschriesling, Riesling, and Sylvaner then aged for around four years. The warm and rich colors of old gold and beautiful, slow pearls. The aromas are attractive oxidative notes, very harmonious aromas of dried fig and dates fill the senses through the drink and after every sip. A very complex demi sec that’s second in sugar on the classic champagne scale, sumptuous and invigorating for the tastebuds, while freshness carries the sweetness.

Wines can be purchased from their store onsite, or online on their Web shop. If in the Zagreb, or Krapina area it’s not far to come to see them onsite for delicious food and lovely wines. Read more about Vuglec Breg on the travel blog SightingSarah.com
