On our wine tour of Serbia, of course, the highlights will be the outstanding wineries. But not only that. We’ll also see:
- Sremski Karlovci — Serbia’s most wine-producing and one of its most picturesque little towns,
- The “Four Lions” Fountain,
- The Chapel of Our Lady of Peace, where the Great Turkish War - and the presence of the Ottoman Empire in Central Europe - finally came to an end.
- The Orthodox Cathedral of St. Nicholas,
- An old pharmacy with an interior crafted in Venice.
- At least two wineries with tastings, plus a guided tour of one of them:
-
Vinarija Vinum with numerous international awards, the first in Serbia to produce sparkling Grašac Beli and one of the country’s best Bermet (both white and red),
-
Vinarija Kiš, the oldest family winery in Srem, awarded for its Rosé, Bermet, and excellent Portugieser,
-
Vinarija Deurić, a winery with a strong focus on terroir, international awards, and a modern wine style,
-or the
Živanović family winery with its beekeeping tradition, producing wine for seven generations.
- A ceramic workshop,
- The Patriarch’s Palace and the theological seminary,
- The medieval Orthodox monastery of Jazak,
- The family tavern “Stari Orah”,
and much more.
And if we’re lucky with the day of the week, we’ll finish our journey at yet another winery: an actual estate with an old mill, vineyards, a carp pond, and a picturesque garden. And most importantly - with wonderful hosts.
