OUR STORY
OUR STORY BEGINS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAST CENTURY…
The first records of the Malićanin family vineyards date back to the 19th century. Even then, Vuleta Malićanin cultivated grapevines on his land in his village Jasikovica, in the heart of Serbia, where all Malićanins living around the world trace their origin. His son Aleksandar continued the family tradition, and at the beginning of the 20th century expanded the family’s vineyards. Aleksandar’s son, Miodrag Mika Malićanin, was the first formally educated winemaker in the family. Known throughout the Trstenik and Župa region as a skilled winemaker and hospitable host, he was chief cellar master in the famous Trstenik winery Sloga. In the 1950s, he planted new and larger vineyards on his father’s land, and in the 1970s, he planted the first modern Sauvignon Blanc vineyard, one of the first of this variety in the Trstenik region.

Mika Malićanin lived long enough to introduce his great-grandson Marko to the magical world of Jasikovica hills and green vineyards, cheerful grape harvests, playful childhood in dusty cellars among oak barrels and casks. Growing up surrounded by winemaking and viticulture, Marko Malićanin’s life and professional path were already set…

WINERY MARKO.
WINES FOR US AND FOR YOU.
In 2020, we opened the winery with a clear and simple vision: we want our wines to reflect our land, climate, character, and love for the work we do.
Our winery is a place where we enjoy creating wines, a center around which our whole family gathers, a place for friends and all sincere lovers of good wine.

A PLACE WHERE TRADITION AND INNOVATION MEET.
The wines made from carefully nurtured grapes from our vineyards go through a unique and strictly controlled process of fermentation, care, and aging.
Through diligent work based on constant analysis, testing, clone selection, and yield control, we create unique and recognizable wines.
Our best wines mature in barrels made of the highest quality oak and in unique amphoras made of Cocciopesto material.
NO COMPROMISES.
ONLY THE BEST.
When it comes to commitment to quality, there are no shortcuts and no compromises at Winery Marko.
Wines intended for aging are placed in the barrel cellar, which consists of the finest French oak barrels made from carefully selected staves of French oak Quercus petraea – the best environment for the maturation of premium wines.
After barrel aging, some wines are ready for bottling and the necessary bottle-aging period, while others undergo additional harmonization in amphoras to become the wine we strive for.

TRSTENIK WINE REGION. CARINE STRIP.
The Trstenik wine region, located in the Tri Morave region, is among the most famous wine-growing areas in central Serbia, producing high-quality wines for many years.
The Carine strip, stretching through the villages of Jasikovica and Kamenjača, where Winery Marko cultivates and nurtures its vineyards, not only has exceptional conditions for growing grapevines but also holds historical and cultural importance. According to tradition, the name Carine originates from the fact that in the time of King Lazar Hrebeljanović, imperial vineyards existed in this area, and wine was transported from here to Lazar’s city, today’s Kruševac, through a special ceramic wine pipeline.
300-350 m
The Trstenik wine region is located in a valley between the West Morava River and the surrounding hills, which rise towards the southwest.
The climate is moderately continental, with warm summers and cold winters, which suits the grapevine well. The Carine strip is situated at an altitude of 300–350 meters, characterized by gentle slopes and a southwest exposure, creating ideal conditions for producing high-quality grapes.

NAŠA PRIČA
NASLEĐE
NAŠA PRIČA POČINJE SREDINOM PROŠLOG VEKA…
Na samom početku 20. veka, Aleksandar Malićanin zasadio je svoj prvi vinograd. Aleksandrov sin, Mika Malićanin bio je prvi školovani vinar u porodici Malićanin. Poznat u trsteničkom kraju kao dobar vinar i dobar domaćin, glavni podrumar u čuvenoj trsteničkoj Slozi, pedesetih godina prošlog veka na vinogradima svog oca sadi nove i veće vinograde. Sedamdesetih godina prošlog veka sadi i svoj prvi Sauvignon, jedan od prvih zasada ove sorte u trsteničkom kraju.
1950
Miki Malićaninu je Bog dao da poživi dovoljno dugo da svog praunuka Marka upozna sa čarobnim svetom trsteničkih brda i zelenih vinograda, veselih i raspevanih berbi grožđa, igre u prašnjavim podrumima među hrastovim buradima. Odrastajući u ambijentu vinarstva i vinogradarstva, životni i profesionalni put Marka Malićanina je još tada bio zacrtan…

VINARIJA
VINARIJA MARKO. VINA ZA NAS I ZA VAS.
2020
2020. godine otvaramo vinariju sa jasnom i jednostavnom vizijom: želimo da pravimo vina baš onakva kakva vina sa ovih prostora treba da budu.
Naša vinarija je mesto na kom uživamo u stvaranju vina, centar oko kog je okupljena cela naša porodica, mesto za naše prijatelje i sve iskrene ljubitelje dobrog vina.
MESTO SUSRETA TRADICIJE I INOVACIJE.
Vina koje dobijamo od brižljivo odnegovanih polodova vinove loze iz naših vinograda Trsteničkog vinogorja, prolaze kroz jedinstveni i strogo kontrolisani proces fermentacije, nege i čuvanja vina.
Studioznim radom zasnovanim na konstantnoj analizi, ispitivanju, izboru klonova i kontroli prinosa, stvaramo jedistvena i prepoznatljiva vina.
Naša najbolja vina sazrevaju u buradima od najkvalitetnijeg hrasta i jedinstvenim amforama od materijala Cocciopesto.

BEZ KOMPROMISA. SAMO NAJBOLJE.
Kada je u pitanju posvećenost kvalitetu, u Vinariji Marko nema prečica i nema kompromisa.
Naša vina koja su namenjena za odležavanje odlaze u naš barik podrum koji se sastoji iz najkvalitetnijih francuskih barika, izrađenih od francuskog Limousin hrasta, najboljeg i nakvalitetnijeg ambijenta za odležavanje vrhunskih vina.
Nakon odležavanja u baricima, ova vina su spremna za flaširanje i neophodan period odležavanja u boci, kako bi se formiralo vino kakvo želimo.
VINOGRADI
TRSTENIČKO VINOGORJE. POTES CARINE.
Trsteničko vinogorje, smešteno u rejonu Tri Morave, jedno je od najpoznatijih vinogradarskih područja u centralnom delu Srbije, područje koje dugi niz godina daje vina vrhunskog kvaliteta.
Potes Carine gde Vinarija Marko gaji i neguje svoje vinograde, osim izuzetnih uslova za uzgoj vinove loze ima posebno značenje zbog svoje istorijske i kulturne baštine. Prema predanjima, ime Carine potiče od činjenice da su na ovom području, u vreme vladavine kneza Lazara Hrebeljanovića, postojali carski vinogradi, odakle se vino prenosilo do Lazarevog grada, današnjeg Kruševca, putem specijalnog keramičkog vinovoda.
Trsteničko vinogorje se prostire u dolini između reke Zapadne Morave i okolnih brda, koja se uzdižu prema jugozapadu.
Klima u ovom rejonu je umereno kontinentalna, sa toplim letima i hladnim zimama, što pogoduje razvoju vinove loze.
Potes Carine se nalazi na 300 do 350 m nadmorske visine. Karakterišu ga blagi nagibi terena i jugozapadna ekspozicija, što stvara idealne uslove za proizvodnju grožđa visokog kvaliteta.
