Tasting Wine

Alike in many families in Bela Krajina, wine production has a long tradition in the Simonič family as well. Every September the family and their friends gather together in order to pick up grapes, so that people of Bela Krajina could later enjoy ten different kinds of Semiska Penina wine. The family started producing sparkling wine in 1998 and got their own cellar in 2000. Wine producing includes several stages. The first stage is fermentation in tanks. Afterwards the wine is stored horizontally in bottles for at least 1, 5 years. After that the bottles are turned vertically. The family produces around 15 ooo bottles of wine per year.

During the stay at BIG BERRY, the guests can try exquisite range of wine as well as visit the winery.
