AVINCIS is the continuation of a family story, with passion for wines and a job well done, a history that began in 1927. Then, Maria and Iancu Ramniceanu – appointed officer of the Romanian army by Ionel Bratianu – bought, in Dragasani, a mansion in pure neo-Romanian style, inspired by the architecture of the Brancoveanu foundations, surrounded by vineyards. In 2007, their great-granddaughter, Cristiana, together with her husband, Valeriu Stoica, and their daughter Andreea, returned to the family domain, where they had the revelation of the miracle of the vineyard, of the wines and of the traditions of the place.
A landmark in the world of oenotourism
Villa Dobrusa Domain – AVINCIS Winery, located in the famous Dragasani vineyard, was to open its doors for wine lovers in the summer of 2011. It includes the mansion, the AVINCIS wine cellar, 45 hectares of vines, several hectares of forest and the landscaping.
After more than a decade since the inauguration, few are lovers of AVINCIS wines who have not yet visited the field, which has become, meanwhile, a landmark in the world of Romanian wine, and not only. Those who visited him, discovering the picturesque surroundings, returned shortly after or set out to return. They all lived, at AVINCIS, memorable oenoturistic experiences, but also the pleasure of exploring the main aesthetic landmarks of the field.
Romanian customs, authentic
Visitors to the domain have several options for spending their free time. "The farm between the vineyards" is located right in the middle of the vineyards, just a 15-minute walk from the VILLA DOBRUSA domain, on a road guarded, on both sides, alive, following the peak of Dragasani Hill, with a beautiful view of the Olt Hill. In the gazebo on the farm you can organize a lunch or dinner with Valcean specific, in the company of AVINCIS wines, for groups of 16-24 people, who want to explore the beauty of the place and the authentic Romanian customs.
Relaxation in Poiana Apostolilor
Walking through the park "Poiana Apostolilor", located on the domain, is another suggestion to spend time outdoors. The landscaping of the VILA DOBRUSA Domain – AVINCIS Winery was fulfilled, with talent and tireless perseverance, by the architect Alexandru Beldiman, by creating this park. Guests can contemplate the original geometry of the place, the spectacle of the sky and the colors of the forest and the surrounding vineyard, in all seasons. The joy will be increased for those who will not forget the picnic basket, from which avincis wines will not be missing.
Because the arrangement of the domain was done with a natural respect for the surrounding nature, you can have the (pleasant) surprise of meeting rabbits, foxes, badgers or deer.
If you prefer walks in the vineyard, avincis team will suggest the recommended routes. It is good to know that the works in the vineyard are a permanent activity and that maybe it is not always possible to explore some of the areas of culture with vines.
Facilities for athletes
There are also solutions for visitors who have turned sports into a daily ritual and want to respect their training hours. The tennis court, the mini-football court, the basketball court or the ping-pong table can be perfect solutions, the only condition being to bring your own equipment. The bicycle route is easily discovered, with the possibility to choose either the roads between the vineyards or the arranged country roads, with ample openings to the surrounding nature – hills with vineyards, the Olt River, the Southern Carpathians or the Mamu Forests.
