This young winemaker has continued a centennial family wine business ennobling it with new technologies and the inherited love for the production of this noble drink. In 1996, the winery places wine with protected growing properties in the market, and introduces the ganymede technology in the production. At the same time new vineyards are planted in the carefully chosen locations of Trebižat and the Dubrave platform. Beside Žilavka and Blatina, Rebac produces also Chardonnay wine.
A centennial tradition of wine-growing, production of grapes and winemaking, love for the magic beverage, and the God-sent Herzegovina climate are all prerequisites without which the Misno wine wouldn’t be what it is. The winemaker Zdravko Rozić is the heir of the family tradition who ennobled it by applying the latest modern technical achievements in the production of Misno wine, which makes it even more distinguishing.
This winemaker produces exclusively high quality Žilavka and Blatina wines in strictly controlled and limited quantities. Numerous are the acknowledgments and medals that ornamented the wines of the Family cellar Rozić, on both local and international markets. Zdravko Rozić is particularly proud of the gold medal from the wine fair Vinovita in Zagreb in 2006, being aware that this grade was given according to the most rigorous criteria of the OIV.
The beauty of wine is in tasting, not in narrating, so glasses up and cheers!
