Kmetija Mahnič Farm

WINE CELLAR

A RESTAURANT WITH HOMEMADE FOOD

Accommodation

Upon crossing the Slovenian-Croatian border, the first thing you catch sight of is a picturesque village of Dragonja spread over with vineyards, olive groves and cultivated areas are spread over.

 

Kmetija Mahnič Farm, located just a step away from the main road embraces you with a warm welcome serving produce, carefully grown by Mahnič family all year long. The patio of their restaurant with a rustic charm gives an exceptional view across the salt pans to the sea and the nearby Kaštel village, to individuals and groups of tourist who are always made to feel settled here. Having an exquisite drink served by Ms Ingrid as well as some exceptional homemade food prepared by Mr Adrijano, many wish that the day would come to an end.

 

Kmetija Mahnič Farm is spread over 15 hectares of land and is home to olive plantations, orchards, vegetable fields, last but not least vineyards. The fifth Wine Queen of Slovenian Istria, Miss Kim Mahnič, is there to proudly present ten varieties that flourish in their vineyards namely, Malvasia, Refosco, white and black Burgundy, Bianchera, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Yellow Muscat, Momjan Muscat and Cipro.

Cellar

 

Kmetija Mahnič Farm’s wine cellar is not merely a wine storage room, but a place with a soul. Follow a fence made of old vines that will walk you through the cellar where you will find barrels with fronts. These will show you a long-time tradition of winemaking. Take your time and if you take a close look at the front of the first barrel in the cellar, you will see St. Martin with Ana depicted.

 

Mahnič Family offers exclusive wine tastings in the cellar guided by an expert. You will head for a tasting of their premium wines by being offered from three up to eight samples.
