Sailing Croatia and Taking In a Wine-Tasting Tour
By MedSailors Crew published on 19 October 2016
A sailing Croatia break really can be full of surprises, and one thing that you might not be aware of is the country’s rich history when it comes to wine-making. It may not be the first place that comes to mind when you consider the world’s best vintages, but with a wealth of vineyards across the country, a wine-tasting tour is a must when it comes to making the most of your sailing break.
Firstly, a vineyard visit to either Stari Grad or Vis will provide you with some of the most beautiful scenery that Croatia has to offer. With lush vegetation and rolling hills, taking a walk in the wine-growing regions of this wonderful country offers some of the best photo opportunities you could wish for.
Secondly, you might just learn something in amongst all the delicious wine-tasting. A vineyard tour will allow you to discover the fascinating history which surrounds the tradition of wine-making in Croatia – and, perhaps more importantly, you will get to taste the results of all the hard work!
Lastly, Croatian wine really is some of the most delicious you will ever taste. Although it is yet to enjoy the same international profile as some other wine-producing countries, it can certainly match any other region for quality. And tasting the wine in the very place it is produced is something truly special.
