Cabernet Sauvignon is a grape variety that defined the boundary between "Old World" and "New World" wines. Its reputation in the Old World is based on its excellent ripening and aging potential in the bottle. It originated around 1600 as a natural cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. The variety hails from France, specifically the renowned Bordeaux region. Cabernet produces full-bodied red wines, typically ruby red, sometimes turning violet, with grapes accumulating significant sugar levels.
Cabernet Sauvignon wines are robust, rich in varietal aromas and tannins. Early-harvested grapes exhibit herbal notes, while typical wines display berry fruit aromas. The wines are high-quality, with characteristic spicy scents reminiscent of forest violets, bright red color, and harmonious flavor.
The cluster is cylindro-conical, moderately compact or compact, small to medium-sized. Cluster weight ranges from 60 to 140 grams. Berries are medium, round, firm-skinned, dark violet-blue, and very small. Sugar content ranges from 20 to 24%, with total acidity between 5 and 8 g/L.
Self-pollinating.
Cabernet Sauvignon has moderate resistance to downy mildew and powdery mildew, excellent resistance to Botrytis, and belongs to the group of varieties highly resistant to low winter temperatures.
You can purchase seedlings of Cabernet Sauvignon grape at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
The depth of the pit is 40-50 cm, and the width is 30-40 cm.
First, a 5-6 cm layer of loose, fertile soil is placed at the bottom of the pit.
Cut the root of the vine seedling to 10 to 12 cm from the main stem (substrate).
Insert the vine seedling into the hole at an angle of 45°. The connection point of the coil should be 2-3 cm above the ground surface.
Once the seedling is placed in the hole, a layer of crumbly, fertile, and moderately moist soil is spread over the roots. The applied soil layer is then firmly pressed down.
The graft is supported by hand below the grafting point so that it does not move during pressing and compacting.

After the pressing and compacting of the soil is completed, the seedling is watered with 5 liters of water.
Then the remaining upper part of the hole is filled with a mixture of soil and organic fertilizer. The soil is first mixed with well-rotted manure, and then this mixture is poured into the hole and firmly compacted by pressing.
In autumn planting, apply finely crumbled soil over the planted seedling and form a mound so that only 1–2 cm of the branches remain exposed. The mound protects the seedling from freezing during the winter.
In spring planting, it is not necessary to form a mound.
