Croatian Wine in 60 Seconds: Crljenak Kaštelanski, Tribidrag and Zinfandel
Channel: Dr. Matthew Horkey
Date: 2018-12-16

In the third episode of "Croatian Wine in 60 Seconds", we introduce 'the original Zinfandel'. Did you know that Zinfandel originated in Croatia?

In 2001, a team of researchers—led by Dr Carole Meredith from UC Davis and Dr Edi Maletić and Dr Ivan Pejić from the University of Zagreb—found nine remaining vines of Crljenak Kaštelanski in a Croatian town called Kaštel Novi. The name Crljenak Kaštelanski means “the red from Kaštela”. The variety was later confirmed to be ‘the original Zinfandel’. In Croatia, the grape also goes by its 15th-century name, Tribidrag.
