Croatia Holidays: summer season is past, wine season started!
Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich, full of flavour red wine with blackberry notes and smoky taste. It pairs brilliantly with steak or another good option is with dairy or gouda cheese.
Refošk
Is a flavoursome red that is quite similar to a Syrah. It sometimes gives notes of leather and spices.
Borgonja
Borgonja is a mildly strong and its colour is deep red, and it has notes of wild berries and violets. It pairs nicely with cheese, fish, meat, pasta and prosciutto, making Borgonja a very food-friendly wine.
With the soil being fertile and the producers making the wine, people that come to Istria have the opportunity to participate in the harvest, visit vineyards and wine producers to learn the process or simply taste the finished and refined product and pair it with some delicious Istrian appetizers and dishes.
