The winery was founded in 2006 under the name "Duša" by the French couple Cyrille Bongiraud and Estelle Germain, the daughter of the owner of the cellar and vineyard "Chateau de chorey" in the famous Burgundy. This married couple, who moved to Kladovo with their three children from France, applied the knowledge and experience of their ancestors and made a superb white wine from the plantations of the famous Kladovo vineyard, called "Soul of the Danube".
In January 2020, the winery was bought by Milisav and Miroslav Gamanović, owners of "Gaman ltd.", from Kladovo, and they changed its name to the Gamanović Winery. The new owners, father and son, continue the family tradition of growing vines and producing top quality wines and brandies.

Sandy-permeable land along the Danube, the largest number of sunny and warm days a year in Serbia, the reflection of sunlight from the Danube, as well as good ventilation of the vine with winds and breeze through the Djerdap gorge, with minimal spraying annually, are ideal conditions to obtain a superior assortment. All this, with the engagement of one of the most professional and experienced oenologists - wine expert with 55 years of experience, makes an ideal combination for the production of high quality wines.
The capacities of the winery are around 60,000 I. Currently, about 30,000 I wines are produced with a tendency of increase, but exclusively based on quality. With the existing 30 hectares of arable vineyard and the tendency to grow to a total of 46 hectares, the Gamanović Winery can boast the largest vineyard in the territory of eastern Serbia. New orchards are planned, with a focus on a combination of domestic indigenous and international top grape varieties. The orientation is also toward the transition to organic production.
New brands were made, Italian Riesling, Rose and Cabernet Sauvignon, with exclusive packaging and improved production technology, which resulted in even better wine quality.
As a variety for the production of quality white wines, Riesling is extremely well known and recognized all over the world. In the conditions of Gamanović Winery, Riesling reaches up to 25% of sugar, so that wines have 13 and more percent of alcohol, rich extract, with over 22 grams per liter with crystal clarity and refreshing acidity. Other ingredients, such as esters, aldehydes, aromatic substances with pronounced floral and fruity aromas, give complete satisfaction and enjoyment, especially if paired with certain dishes such as fish specialties, grilled dishes, roast pork and lamb, white chicken meat and drumstick, veal and lamb, goulash and venison from the Miroč mountain, stew with dried ribs and all kinds of smoked meat.
In addition to the existing labels, White Tamjanika and Merlot Barrique will soon be on offer. Besides the top wines, there is currently a brandy in oak barrels that will also be on the market soon, as well as plum brandy produced from the highest quality plums from the area of Negotinska Krajina.
The cellar of Gamanović Winery is located in the village of Kostol, 1 km downstream from Kladovo and covers 550 m2.
