Plavinci Organic Winery

Plavinci Organic Winery is rated 3 out of 5 in the category wine and spirits. Read and write reviews about Plavinci Organic Winery. Plavinci wines are made from the organically certified grapes grown in our own vineyards. We do not use any synthetic chemicals in our vineyards. Soil is maintained in a healthy condition with mulched and left-in-place cover crop (no-till) and compost tea made from our own plant material from our organic vegetable gardens and the vineyard itself. Pest control is provided by biodiversity where abundant natural predators have habitat. Our wines are made according to the EU rules for organic viniculture. We do not use any additives and we do not correct must for acidity or sugar. Must is fermented with natural yeast. We do not clarify or filter our red wine, and white and rosé are filtered only through a course filter. We do not use animal-based products, either in the vineyard or winery and our wine can be considered vegan. There are many we do nots above, so the question is what do we do in our winery. Very little. We add a little sulphur at the crush, and a bit more just before the bottling. Our wines typically have 40-60 g/l of total sulphur when bottled, three to four times less than permitted for the organic wines. Our wines are different every year.
