Overview
Pärnu County lies on Estonia's west coast, centered on the resort city of Pärnu and extending inland through gentle farmland and coastal pine forests. The Baltic Sea moderates temperatures, making the region one of the more hospitable parts of the country for viticultural experiments.
Mullapera Veinitalu and Valgeranna Veinitall are among the producers working with Solaris, Rondo, and a range of local fruits and berries. The style is light, fresh, and often playful, reflecting the region's holiday atmosphere and connection to the sea.
