IT IS OUR WISH
...to be even more dedicated to growing high quality grafted vines, a specialized grapevine -growing cooperative Trsnica Vrhpolje was founded in 1994 and today consists of 50 members. Independent, but closely cooperating with Trsnica, Selekcijsko trsničarsko središče Vrhpolje grows virus-free clonal planting material. It has been in this field of work since its foundation in 1991. Selekcijsko trsničarsko središče Vrhpolje is a name for successful cooperation between the Ministry of Agriculture and Trsnicawhich has already borne fruit –a collectional vineyard was planted with fifty-two different grape varieties in Lože, next to Vipava.
During the grafted vine production, most attention is given to rootstock and scion material. They have to be first-class. In order to achieve that, we carefully select them by mass selection as the basis of clonal selection from vineyards all over Vipavska Valley, Goriška Brda, Carst and Koper in the span of five years.
In 2009, first Slovenian clones of Rebula, Pinela, Zelena, Malvasia, Sauvignon, Refošk, Barbera, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Laški Rhiesling, Dišeči traminec, Radgonska Ranina, Ranfola, Renski Rhiesling, Šipon, Žametna črnina were recognised. We proudly announce that our clones of Rebula, Zelena and Pinela are on the verge of recognition. This is how we ensure best genetic material for our grafted vines which is later seen in good vine growth and high quality yield. Besides high quality vine grafts , we have to mention rootstocks, especially good quality American rootstocks. That is why our nurserymen planted virus-free clones, the production of which has been based upon a million rootsctocks well adjusted to our soil types and climate conditions.
A variety of clonal rootstocks looked after by our caring nurserymen consists of:SO4 clone binova, SO4 clone 31, SO4 clone 15, Kober 5BB, clone G 13, Paulsen 1103 clone 113, 420 A clone 10 and 3309.
IN OUR TRSNICA VRHPOLJE...
...WE WATCH OVER grafts until the moment an attentive farmer's hands plant them into the fertile soil wishing for bountiful produce.

All are cut with two eyes, paraffined, disinfected and packed in a cardboard box. They are stored in a cold room at 4°C waiting to be planted if the customer should require so. Prepared and stored in this way, grafts are optimal for planting.
