🏆Gold – Expovina Wine Trophy 2025
3× Gold – Decanter World Wine Awards
Zvonko Bogdan's Cuvée No. 1 is the winery's flagship wine and one of Serbia's most award-winning red wines. After winning three gold medals at the Decanter World Wine Awards, it also won gold at the Expovina Wine Trophy in Zurich in 2025 – impressive proof of its international excellence.
In the glass, this Bordeaux blend of 70% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon combines the elegance of great Bordeaux wines with the powerful fruit and finesse of the Pannonian Plain . The nose is dominated by blackberries, blackcurrants, and ripe cherries , complemented by subtle hints of graphite, mint tea, and fine oak spice .
On the palate it is elegant yet powerful , with layers of dark fruits, perfectly balanced tannins and a long finish reminiscent of plums, cocoa and dark chocolate .
Serving recommendation
