In the town of Aleksandrovac, Zdravković Budimir affectionately known as Deda Buda (Grandfather Buda in English) has been crafting nearly 80 vintages of authentic wines. In 2006, his son-in-law Aleksander Rašković made a bold but imperative decision to systematically commercialize Budimirs wines, allowing the wines to not only be available to wine lovers in Serbia but also around the world. The SvB Rosa, which means under the rose, is a blend of 60% Prokupac and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. The Prokupac grapes are grown on old bush vines.
