Varieties grown include: Jutrzenka,  Ortega, Muscat, Seyval Blanc as well as Rondo and Regent.

The year 2005 was the time for the hosts to take a ground-breaking decision to purchase new land for planting. The future vineyard area, which is located near the first habitat, has been recognized by the owners as yet an undiscovered treasure, very valuable, but one that requires a time-consuming process. After five years of hard work and effort put into the formation of the vineyard in this area, in 2010, the first of the Subcarpathian vineyard terraces was established. Among the varieties grown there, the ones deserving special attention are: Johanniter, Siegerrebe, Solaris and Cabernet Dorsa, Cabernet Cortis, Regent. The area was developed as the perfect combination of ambient environment conducive to the development of oenotourism. A care was taken to reconstruct the once existing ponds, where now one can go fishing. The winery hosts tastings for individuals and groups, briefings on viticulture and wine production. Held also here is the sale of both their own seedlings and the imported ones.
