About Turnau
Winnica Turnau is a family estate in Baniewice, near Szczecin in north-west Poland. The Turnau cousins founded it in 2010 in a restored nineteenth-century farm building, working with German winemaker Frank Faust. Today it is one of Poland's largest vineyards and a benchmark for modern Polish wine.
