In 1979, the Brkić family founded the first modern cellar in BiH. The philosophy here is to produce natural, organic wines. Their Žilavka and Blatina wines are singular and scrumptious and more full-bodied than many of the others in the area. For eco-wine lovers, a visit to this vineyard is a must. Besides wine, the family also makes honey, cherry, walnut, and herbal liqueurs, and sells a delightful loza (grappa). The most interesting wine from this cellar is called Mjesečar, or Sleepwalker. It is the first biodynamic wine produced in Bosnia and Herzegovina. As the name implies, this Žilavka – a Herzegovinian white wine – is seductive, passionate, and mystical. That personality comes from its maker, Josip Brkić.

The Berak family is one of the oldest families in the Trebinje area. Traditionally, they have been into wine production ever since they inhabited this Herzegovina area, and it is beleived they came sometimes in the 17th century. Blend of science and centuries of residence in the Herzegovinian sun has made this cellar  distinctive by specific RUJNO wine produced from ancient varieties of Surco, Kadarun and Plavka. In  this wine cellar, located in the Trebinje suburban settlement called Police, you can enjoy Vranac, Zilavka, Chardoney and Merlot wines.

The tradition of grapes and wine production is about 100 years old. In 1998, persuaded by his friends, winemakers, the producer for the first time filled the bottles, made and labelled by him. Over the following years the production increased, and alongside with cellar production the production of the subcontractors increased too. The development included also the arrangement and equipment of the family cellar with modern technologies.

The basic motives of production advancement are conservation and prolongation of the tradition

with the possibility for one of the sons (three of them) to increase the production and possibly deal

professionally with the production of wine and grapes.
