Vineyards and Winery
From Vine to Bottle to Glass
The finest wines from Baranja tell the story of the place they come from.
Our wines bring together the generosity of nature and the skilled hands of our winegrowers, who harvest each of our almost 3 million vines by hand every year.
Belje’s vineyards cover more than 500 hectares on the southern slopes of Banovo Brdo, Baranja’s highest hill, with magnificent views across the surrounding landscape. We make our wines exclusively from grapes grown in these vineyards, at the region’s most advanced winery. With a total capacity of 8 million litres, the winery houses 250 stainless steel tanks.
Graševina reaches its fullest potential in Croatia’s Danube region, surpassing other growing regions in Croatia and beyond. While it is the dominant variety in our vineyards, we also produce other wines. Vina Belje chardonnay, merlot, cabernet sauvignon and frankovka feature on the wine lists of renowned restaurants and bars.
The winery is a visitor attraction wine lovers will not want to miss. To discover where our wines are made, book a visit to our winery, set in the heart of picturesque vineyards.
