Written sources show that as early as the time of Austro-Hungary, more precisely during the time of the German Emperor Charlemagne, they exercised their right to pour wine. This right also continued through the reign of Empress Maria Theresa and the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Joseph II. The decree of 1784 allowed winegrowers an 8-day deadline to pour wine. According to this decree, the farmer or the winegrower sold his wine surpluses from the previous year in the winery (OSMICA) under the branch. He was able to sell wine 8 days a year without tax. To inform others that the eight is taking place, they attached a bunch of ivy - fraska to the front door.
Our osmica
We started working with Osmica in 2001. Osmica is located in a larger space, which we rearranged from the hayloft. The eight is performed twice a year, usually around St. Martin's Day, in November and in spring in April or May.
