The Domaine Bire wine estate is nestled in the incredible natural beauty of the Dalmatian coast in Croatia, a region rich in history, culture, and wine heritage. A landscape of rolling vineyards stretches out to the Adriatic Sea, basking under the azure blue sky. This impressive and idyllic landscape forms a cinematic backdrop for Domaine Bire's treasured vineyards. The vineyard is a celebration of the Dalmatian wine tradition dating back to Roman times. Traditional cultivation methods prevail here. The vineyards cover around 5 hectares, primarily planted with the native Grk grape variety, one of the best kept secrets of Croatian viticulture. These vines, some several decades old, are distinguished by their ability to produce bold wines, which abundantly express the fascinating terroir of the island. Led by a minimalist winemaking philosophy, Domaine Bire creates genuine liquid treasures. Their prodigious Grk wine has been a pioneer in the region since its introduction. Wines produced from these native varietals form elegant compositions, full of fruity, floral, and mineral notes, which tell the true story of the Dalmatian landscape. In addition to winemaking, Domaine Bire is also a place of wine tourism experiences. Visitors can taste different wines, learn about the winemaking process, walk through the idyllic vineyards, and learn about the history of Dalmatian viticulture. It's a perfect destination for all wine lovers seeking to learn more about Croatia's rich wine history and have a unique experience. Thus, Domaine Bire is much more than just a vineyard.
