La table du vigneron - Peter Radovic

Join us for an unforgettable evening at Racines as we welcome the renowned winemaker Peter Radovic’s taht makes wines in Carso, near the town of Trieste, along the Slovenian border. He is the youngest winemaker in the region. Together with his family he owns a farm, with olive trees and 7 acres of vineyards planted to Terrano, Vitovska, and Malvasia. They also have sections of the vineyard they have been unable to identify the grape variety. The vineyard sites are extremely steep and comprised of porus limestone soils. The terrain of the area is very rugged and rather inhospitable to farming. This hasn’t stopped Peter as he continues to produce some of the most unique wines in the area.

A small artisanal winery with just over one hectare of vineyard in the Trieste Karst and an annual production of around 4,000 bottles. The estate traces its roots back to the early 1900s, but it wasn't until 2018 that Peter Radovic, born in 1991, decided to transform the winemaking operation, introducing a series of small innovations in the cellar, including the use of local stone vats for grape maceration. Both in the vineyard and the cellar, he intervenes as little as possible: organic vineyard management, indigenous yeast use, spontaneous fermentation, and no fining or filtration.
