Croatia is well known as a country of many islands but lesser-known as a country of many vineyards, ranging from the tiny unknowns to the award-winning gold medal wine producers.

With the wine industry blossoming since the independence of Croatia,  the quality of the wine being produced is increasingly being recognized internationally. In 2009, Croatia stunned the wine world by taking eight gold medals at the illustrious Decanter Wine Awards, over and above the heavyweights of New Zealand and Chile. In 2016 Croatia won an amazing 72 medals at these same awards.!!!
