Drašković Winery is built on the foundations of the decades-long fame of one of the largest wineries in former Yugoslavia, Vršac Vineyards, marking the beginning of a new era in grape growing and winemaking in the Vršac wine region.
The decision of the Swisslion – Takovo business system is to implement a multi-year investment plan that includes investments in all segments of grape and wine production, starting from vineyards, through the construction of a new winery building, to the reconstruction of 19th-century buildings for the purpose of wine tourism. Currently, approximately 380 hectares are under vineyards. The predominant white wine varieties are: Italian Riesling, Muscat Otonel, Rhine Riesling, White Burgundy, Chardonnay, Smederevka, Župljanka, Šasla, Rkaciteli, and Kreaca, while the red varieties include: Frankovka, Muscat Hamburg, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah.
The wines are divided into several categories. Banat Riesling, a wine with geographical origin. The basic line consists of five labels: Muscat Otonel, White Burgundy, Chardonnay, Rosé, and Frankovka. The premium line includes three labels: Wind Rose, Wild Rose, and Horizon, while the authentic line consists of two labels: White Pinot and Mahago. In a special category, we offer limited series wines Frankovka Reserve and Grašac – Late Harvest. Our system also includes Helvecija, a historically significant facility built in 1880 as a wine cellar with a capacity of one million liters. It is now a completely reconstructed facility that includes a hotel with 10 luxurious accommodation units in the main building and seven in the annex, an à la carte restaurant, a wine salon, a tasting room, and a unique cellar where pre-arranged dinners, celebrations, tastings, and similar events can be held.
