Discovering the wine region of Istria
Croatian Adriatic peninsula with a temperate Mediterranean climate moderated by the Alps, three soil types: red (iron-rich), grey and white (limestone). Malvazija Istarska is the exclusive signature white: dry and aromatic with vibrant notes of citrus, orchard fruits, flowers, bitter almond and a saline-iodine mineral touch, crisp acidity. Teran is the indigenous signature red (cousin of Refosco): full-bodied with black fruits, herbs and a smoky touch, firm tannins. Merlot as complement.
