Open cellar days - wine month in Osijek’s Countryside (12.06-11.07)
The Osijek-Baranja County Tourist Board and the Osijek-Baranja County organize the so-called wine month or Open Cellar Days in the period from June 12th to July 11th 2020 by the principle - 4 vineyards, 4 weekends of wine hedonism. Follow the new information about the event here.
Namely, as most of the events were cancelled due to coronavirus, the idea of organizing a "dispersed manifestation" arose, which is in line with the measures of the National Crisis Office.
We’ll open the Days of open cellars in the vineyards of Baranja, and we’ll stay there from 12th to 14th of June. Next weekend (Saturday) plan to discover the Feričanci vineyards - June 20th, the weekend after that, June 27th and 28th is reserved for the Erdut vineyards due to the celebration of the International Danube Day on June 29th. We’ll taste what the Đakovo vineyards offer on the 3rd and 4th of July at the time of marking the Đakovo embroidery (Đakovački vezovi), Croatia’s most important traditional customs festival. Wine month ends on 11th of July with the Evening of Wine and Art in Osijek, one of the most popular events in Osijek.
Baranja 12.-14.06
Feričanci: 20. 06
Erdut: 27.-28.06
Đakovo: 03.-04.07
Osijek, Evening of wine and art: 11.07
With open cellars, visitors will be able to learn something new about wine through organized Small Schools of Wine in each vineyard, enjoy concerts, poetry readings and guided walks through the vineyards. We believe that enjoying wine, wine cellars and vineyards is the best social remedy after a period of restrictive measures.
Open Cellar Days were first organized 30 years ago in Tuscany, and every year since then, wine cellars are opened nationally in Italy on the last weekend in May. Numerous wine regions have joined in, and we are joining in with a whole month of wine hedonism!
