About Podrum Bajilo

Podrum Bajilo lies in the 1864 cellars at the heart of Sremski Karlovci’s baroque centre: a 50-metre tunnel dug 30 metres into the hill at its far end, holding a natural 11 °C all year. The Bajilo family, of Dalmatian origin, brought their winemaking tradition to Karlovci in 1966, and the third and fourth generations now run it, with 22 hectares of vines on the slopes of Fruška Gora. Many are varieties bred in Karlovci itself, such as Sila, Riesling Neoplanta, Petra and Probus, alongside black bermet. Tastings pour three or four wines with cheese and pogačice; it is open daily 9am–7pm.
