Istrian wines for a unique gastronomic experience
Raise your glass and toast to the exquisite flavours of Istria, to fabulous gastronomic experiences, to moments to remember! Produced and greatly appreciated on the peninsula since the Roman times, Istrian wines beautifully complement delicious dishes of traditional cuisine and invite you to share relaxed moments with family and friends.
Exceptional wines of Istria
Enjoy a delightful seafood, fish or white meat dish over a glass of malvasia wine! The authentic flavourful white wine is produced on the western side of the peninsula. Another example of excellent rounded white wine is Momjan muscat, named after the town in whose vicinity the wine is made. It perfectly complements truffles and desserts.
Foodies who like game dishes and meat stew, prosciutto and sausages round off their meal with a glass of full-bodied ruby-red teran, also an authentic Istrian wine produced in central Istria. Apart from native varieties, Istria provides the perfect soil and microclimate for wines such as merlot, cabernet sauvignon, pinot, etc.
