Croatian Wine in 60 Seconds: Istrian Red Wines (Value Haul)
Channel: Dr. Matthew Horkey
Date: 2018-12-02

In our first episode of "Croatian Wine in 60 Seconds", we put the spotlight on value-for-money Istrian red wines. If you're hunting for value in your red wines, then these red wine blends from Istria should be on your radar!

The key red grapes grown in Istria are Borgonja (Blaufränkisch), Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Refošk (Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso), and Teran (Terrano). Many winemakers in Croatian Istria produce at least one Istrian red blend. This style of red blend usually includes the ubiquitous Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, plus a local touch of Teran and Refošk. These Istrian red blends are unique yet strangely familiar to experienced palates. Lovers of Central Italian red wines will feel right at home drinking these Istrian red blends. Because of the generous bright flavors and juicy acidity, these wines go great with food. 

Istrian wine producers featured in this episode:
1. Matošević Winery
2. Degrassi Winery
