Craft wines from South Estonia created with deep passion!

We are Maris and Mati Kivistik. We make craft wines from our own and other local raw materials. We have exciting wines from sea buckthorn, rhubarb, black currant, non-quince, raspberry and other berries. Testing new flavors is our passion.

Our farm is located in Võru County, Rõuge Parish, in the village of Uue-Saaluse on the shore of the beautiful Lake Alajärv. It is about 10-15 minutes by car from Võru to the city – 15 km.

We are waiting for you to visit us, to get a part of the activities of a small wine farm, the beautiful nature of Haanja nature Park and the peaceful countryside. To find out more about what is exciting to do with us and see it, click on: VISIT OPPORTUNITIES. Our wines can be ordered from the online store by going to the PRODUCTS section. Our products can also be found in several stores and restaurants all over Estonia, the list of which can be found in the section POINTS OF SALE.
