The Benedictines from Admont (Austria) had established a sizeable, predominantely wine estate (38 hectares) streching on the Pesnica hills back in 1815. They kept it in their possesion and grew wines until 1938, when my grandfather Ivan Dopler bought the estate. He, himself came from a winegrowing family and winemaking represented not only a means of livelihood, but also an indescribable satisfation, even fulfillment of his life’s dream.
Grandfather Ivan had enjoyed 89 abounding harvests and then generously passed his knowleadge and the love for winegrowing to my mother Veronika Krsnik, who took over the entire estate in 2002.
I have inherited their love and enthusiasm for winegrowing, it is engrained in every single moment and task connected to it; from planting the vines to tasting its intoxicating aroma and its luster when poured into the glass,…
Winegrowing is not only my work, it is my life. This is why I took over the responsibility to further develop the estate Dopler. I am immensly enjoying the new winegrowing challenges, especially as I have the selfless help and support of my entire family. We are currently growing vines at our estate of 9 hectares, and would be happy to bring our excellent wines to your homes.
We wake up with the first rays of even those ancient days 1500 years before Christ, when the sun accompanied us at gardens and vineyards. The rich vegetation and fertile soil have strengthened the Dioniz, God of Wine. He enjoyed every sip of wine.
It is this wine with divine taste which accompanied us over the centuries in war and in love, through sorrow and laughter, in the palaces and huts and in the hearts and in minds.
Appropriate climatic conditions affect the development of good and quality vine. This quality wine with a rich aroma occur in one of the most modern wineries in Europe. The wine cellar of house Doppler is located at a depth of 5 meters and it spreads over 600m2 area. Professional equipment and the most sensitive sensors measure concentration of carbon dioxide and they immediately stop any increase of the concentration. All the characteristics of the wine are measured, recorded and controlled in the laboratory at House Doppler. Here are produced the best wines.
Grandpa Dopler said: What Dionis did in the Greece, I can do in Pesnica valley. There is also a lot of beautiful women and nothing can stop me from production of divine wine.
And grandfather and his granddaughter were more than successful.

The fresh grapes feel makes this wine very likeable.
Efekt expressed both in a richness of flavour and an expressive, fruity, aroma. The hint of Barrique lends an air of enchantment to this perfect tapestry of varietal aromas that hint at wild berries and blackberries with ripening aroma of chocolate.
This sparkling wine is produced by the classical method of secondary fermentation in bottles. The tiny bubbles that travel to the surface are connected into a likeable necklace.

Sophisticated taste of its bold body, poise and coherence of wine ingredients are the result of years of yeast maturation and successful autolysis. Diona is the pride of our winery.
