“While for most people, the end of August and the beginning of September means the end of summer, for us, that period means the beginning of the grape harvest and the most exciting part of the year. This year we expect about 1,100 tons of grapes, of which the largest amount belongs to Graševina, followed by Frankovka. Through a rich assortment in our vineyards, we manage to optimally organize the harvest according to the ripening of our grapes,” said the head of viticulture and wine production at Enosophia, Lucija Kužir.

After the sparkling wine bases, it starts with the regular harvest of the other varieties, followed by Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon blanc, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. Kužir added that no wine-growing year is the same, so this year she surprised several times. But, despite many challenges, all Enosophia vineyards are in excellent health and the happiest part of the wine year began with this harvest.”

We remind you that the Enosophia brand appeared on the market in early July this year. It is unique in its holistic approach to the brand, care for people, ecology, and sustainable development, and the ambition to position Slavonia as a desirable wine tourist destination. In addition to a holistic approach to the development process and the vision of the new brand, Enosophia is unique because of the innovative technology and interactive AR label on its first wines – Graševina TRS No. 5 in the Matarouge rosé.

For example, with the help of augmented reality, it is possible to read specially composed music with the help of a mobile application on the wine label TRS No. 5, which, according to research, improves the taste of wine. Likewise, by reading the Matarouge label, the user can learn more about the world’s most famous rosé regions. The quality of the new Graševina was also recognized at this year’s prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards, where TRS No. 5 won bronze.
