Svaku lozu fali, a crljenak sadi.
Vrst je loze od starine:
crljenak je njojzi ime
čuva Bog jon vridno sime.
Ljubo Stipišić Delmata
High on the southern,
sun-bathed slopes of the Kozjak hill overlooking Kaštela lies one of the
vineyards of Vučica Winery, characteristic for growing the autochthonous kaštelanski
crljenak variety.
Along with vineyards planted in Budožići, Grovište, Kolovrat and
Podvornica, the one in nearby Dugobabe is important not only for its production merit, but
for its traditional, sentimental value as well. Many decades ago, our
grand-grandfathers began growing grapevines in those fields and producing wine
for their own needs.
Family tradition of
grapevine growing and eco-friendly winemaking has developed into a serious
business, yielding up to 5000 litres of high-quality red, white and rosé wine
each year.
Vučica Winery wine
selection is complemented by home-made delicacies, cheese and prosciutto which,
combined with golden drops of extra virgin olive oil, are proudly served to
guests eager for new gastronomic experiences.
