Today the Ferdinand wine house is led by Matjaž Četrtič, an agronomist who wanted
to become a wine-maker from an early age. He brought a family wine growing tradition
back to life from the times when his great grandfather was making wine very successfully.
Matjaž Četrtič – the wine maker
Matjaž was still a teenager at Agricultural School when he took over the cultivation of the biggest plot in 1992. His vision was to build a wine cellar and to produce exclusive high quality wines from this wonderful Brda region and especially the indigenous Rebula variety. His father Marjan trusted his son, providing great support, himself fully committing to wine-growing. In 1997 the first bottles of wine were ready for the market.
