During the complete reconstruction of the castle in Bela and in accordance with the tradition of the Ullman family, the owner, Countess Ilona von Krockow, together with the renowned German winemaker and family friend Egon Müller, decided to establish a new winery. They renovated the cellar and employed the well-known and respected local winemaker Miroslav Petrech. The winery was founded in 2000. The 300-year-old cellar was completely renovated and equipped with completely new technologies as well as a new warehouse.
An artisan winery located in Eastern Georgia that specializes in the 8,000 year old Georgian Qvevri wine making tradition and sources all their grapes sourced from at least 50 year-old vines. Making wines from old vines in Georgia is a rare and difficult project since during soviet times most older vines were ripped up and replaced so as to produce more grapes.
3 weeks on skins has changed this cuvée a lot since last vintage. Structured tannins and a bolder minerality give this wine a new life as an orange wine, with the same enticing rose gold colour as the past few vintages.
