Our story and values

Our Story

Janionių Vineyard began with a family passion for grapes and a desire to create something special in Lithuania. Although Lithuania is not a traditional grape-growing country, we believe that with love, care, and the right grape varieties, we can grow excellent grapes.

Our journey began over 20 years ago when family patriarch Jonas Janonis first planted a vine in his garden. What started as a hobby grew into a family passion and eventually into a full vineyard.

Today, "Janionių vineyard - Little Italy" is a place where tradition meets innovation. We use old, proven methods, but also rely on modern knowledge about plant care and sustainability.
