Wein der Adria

Autochthone Sorten, Kalkstein, Wind, Inseln und die Keller, die daraus Wein machen.

Ein wachsendes Nachschlagewerk zu Rebsorten, Regionen, Kellern und Routen — von Malvazija und Teran bis Pošip, Rebula und Vranac.

Our wine coverage begins with origin: grape, soil, exposure, climate, farming and cellar choices. Scores can be useful; context is more durable. The goal is a reference that works for travellers, sommeliers and curious drinkers alike.

Istria

Malvazija Istarska

Freshness, saline lift, orchard fruit and a strong sense of limestone and red earth.

Istria / Karst

Teran

High acidity, dark fruit and iron; one of the north Adriatic’s defining red grapes.

Krk

Žlahtina

A light, delicate white closely associated with Vrbnik and the island of Krk.

Korčula / Dalmatia

Pošip

One of Dalmatia’s benchmark whites, capable of both freshness and serious texture.

Korčula

Grk

Rare, distinctive and strongly tied to the sandy vineyards around Lumbarda.

Dalmatia

Plavac Mali

Sun, stone and steep slopes; Croatia’s emblematic southern red grape.

Brda / Friuli

Rebula / Ribolla

A cross-border grape central to the contemporary wine identity of the northern Adriatic.

Karst / Trieste

Vitovska

A subtle Karst variety shaped by limestone, wind and low-yielding vineyards.

Montenegro

Vranac

A powerful indigenous red at the heart of Montenegro’s wine identity.
