Maria and Michael Gross cultivate extremely steep vineyards in the Maribor and Haloze appellations. Their grapes grow almost exclusively on terraces and are processed in the small wine cellar high above the Gorca boiler sites. The couple, with Styrian roots, has now also moved their center of life to Štajerska Slovenija.
Vino Gross' main vineyard sites are Iglič, Korže, Colles and Gorca, all of which are farmed biodynamically. Maria and Michael focus on indigenous grape varieties such as Furmint, Sauvignon Blanc and Welschriesling. They are known for their minimalist winemaking interventions and are founding members of Slovenska Velika Lega, which focuses on the provenance of the wine.
