There was a special wine harvest this year at our old Malek vineyard cottage in the Ljutomer-Ormož hills. In a combined effort with our friends, business partners and well-known Slovenes, we managed to replant and renovate the terraced vineyard with the sort Šipon (Furmint) in 2014. Last year, the vines were pruned, but this year they yielded for the first time.The first harvest was therefore a really special occasion, where we managed to pick 980 kilograms of prime Jeruzalem grapes.

Our Chief Winemaker and CEO of the wine-cellar, Mitja Herga, announced at the harvest  that the wine from the first harvest in this vineyard will be ready in May 2017: "Despite the damage caused by frost and hail this year, this young vineyard with its 31000 vines of Šipon produced a nice yield of grapes. Therefore, we can look forward to some excellent wine." On behalf of the Puklavec family, Tatjana Puklavec welcomed the guests and also participated in the harvest. Jorn Pedersen, Director of the P&F Holding Vino, used this opportunity to point out, that the bottles we fill do not contain only wine, but also the great spirit of people who love making it and the positive energy of the wine-region.
