He sent his oldest grandson Radul Bogdanović to study at the winemaking school in Bukovo near Negotin. After graduation, Radul suggested setting up a cooperative in order to increase production capacity. Soon afterwards, Bogdan and five other wealthy citizens of Knjaževac invested a portion of necessary funds, whilst several hundred small shareholders from Knjaževac and surrounding villages invested the remaining share capital, so the fruit and vinegrowing cooperative was founded on March 27th, 1927. Already in 1929, the cooperative had the first harvest under the supervision of a retired German oenologist from Vršac and Radul Bogdanović. This triggerred rapid development of winemaking in Knjaževac region. This was the beginning of Džervin, as remembered by Radul’s descendants… After the Second World War, the wine cellar got expanded and the private wine cooperative Džervin became state-owned. Radul Bogdanović left Knjaževac and worked as an oenologist in Tunisia, Navip, Strumica and Veles. In 1960, the vinegrowing and fruit-growing cooperative merged with the state-owned agricultural estate Timok to form Džervin Cooperative Cellar. The name Džervin indicates  business activities of the cooperative ( DŽE= jams (“džemovi”), R = brandy (“rakija”) , VIN = wine (vino)). During 1990s, Džervin went through a period of hardships. Decline in production was followed by unsuccessful attempts to restore former production volumes. Failed privatizations in the first decade of the 21st century have led to further collapse of Džervin’s potential. Finally, in 2013, current owners take over the ruined company and initiate gradual revitalization of fruit and grape production.

-Knjaževac wine region is the easternmost area where the Mediterranean variety Vranac is grown.
