ABOUT ALEKSANDROVIĆ

The hills of Oplenac have been used by people since ancient times for growing vines. The place where the Aleksandrović winery originates has its roots, and above all the name, from the distant past. In Roman times Vincea, in the Middle Ages Vinica, and today Vinca – is a direct association with what the population of this place has been doing since ancient times. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Venča vineyard cooperative was built in the vicinity of Vinča, followed by the vineyards and cellar of kings Peter and Aleksandar Karađorđević, who spread the fame of Oplenac wines throughout Europe.

The Aleksandrović family, which has been engaged in viticulture and winemaking for more than a hundred years, has from the beginning worked closely with the winegrowers and winemakers of the king’s cellars, and was among the founders of the Venčac Vine Cooperative. Great-grandfather Miloš Aleksandrović was one of the founders of the Vencačka winegrowing cooperative in 1903, and the family had 30,000 vines by the beginning of World War II. The viticultural and winemaking tradition was continued by grandfather Života and Aleksandar Aleksandrović.

When in 1992, the famous palace cellarman Živan Tadić, who emigrated to Canada after World War II, learned that the Aleksandrović family was restoring the winemaking tradition of the Oplenac region, he sent the original recipe to Vinča – the varietal composition of Triumf, the best wine of the royal cellars, which was previously of the Second World War, it was drunk in almost all European courts. So in our basement, based on the yellowed manuscript, we started to write new pages of the long family history of viticulture and winemaking, relying on the experiences of our ancestors, new scientific knowledge and modern technology.

A new stage in the development of the Aleksandrović Winery began in 2000, when a new winery was built and state-of-the-art equipment for the production of premium wines was acquired.

Today, the Aleksandrović family is the leading Serbian private winery with its wines and uses 75 hectares of its own vineyards planted with high-quality grape varieties for the production of its premium wines. The vineyards are located just a few kilometers from the winery, in three different locations – Vinča, Ježevac and Bokanja, which are characterized by different microclimatic conditions and soil types. The lands on which the plantations were raised belong to the type of fattening and fattening. These are light to medium heavy soils, water permeable and with good physical and chemical properties. They are characterized by a low content of humus, which, in conjunction with a weakly lush rootstock and light feeding, allows us to obtain low yields and high quality grapes. Ježevac hill is particularly characteristic for its skeletal structure. In this location, the soils are the poorest in humus and the richest in stone.

We maintain our grapes and our wines with great care, love and respect. In order to achieve full and optimal ripeness, we leave only the best grapes on the vines, and pick them by hand. During all these processes, the hands of hardworking winegrowers touch the vines more than 15 times in one year. The yield is reduced from 5 kg to 1 kg to 1.5 kg, because we select only the best grapes that will give us top wines.

The Oplenački region, where the Aleksandrović Winery is located, has always been known for growing vines and winemaking, but also for its rich historical heritage. Only a few kilometers from the winery are the Mausoleum of the Karađorđević dynasty, the Royal Winery and Karađorđev town.
