Cracking Croatian Wine in Istria (Part 1/4)
Channel: Dr. Matthew Horkey
Date: 2018-05-24

Exotic Wine Travel goes to Istria, Croatia and visits Domaine Koquelicot, Konoba Morgan, Vina Fakin, Roxanich Winery, and Clai Winery.  

The Istrian peninsula is surrounded on three sides by the Adriatic Sea and bounded by the Alps on the north, allowing a wide array of microclimates. The Istrian wine region touts the moniker “New Tuscany”. Driving through the countryside, it’s easy to see where the similarities lie. The towns, cuisine, and wine have a markedly Italian influence.  It’s the land of Malvazija Istarska wine, Teran wine, Adriatic seafood, hand-rolled pasta, air-cured meat, award-winning Istrian olive oil, and prized Istrian truffles. 

Check out part 1 of our 4-part series about Istria, Croatia to learn more about this leading wine and gastronomy destination.
