As we have written about the indigenous and abundant wine varieties in Croatian vineyards, we realized that we should make a briefer guide, with key information in one place, to help you understand Croatian wine varieties better.

Possibly its last vine was found in Krapina, next to the birth home of Ljudevit Gaj

Grk is a close relative to Tribidrag, a parent of Plavac Mali

The variety has all preconditions to be the red queen of Continental Croatia, even Istria, where it has been planted for over a 100 years under the name Borgonja

Almost every Croatian town will have some version of celebrating Advent in December. And in every single one of those venues you will have the opportunity of drinking mulled wine - kuhano vino, as we call it.
