WINE PAIRING

EXPLORING THE DELIGHTFUL HARMONY OF HVAR'S NATURAL WINES THROUGH PERFECT PAIRING

Indulging in the rich and diverse world of Hvar's natural wines is a journey through the sun-soaked landscapes and vibrant savors of this Croatian paradise. The island, renowned for its picturesque vineyards and traditional winemaking techniques, offers a unique terroir that is reflected in every sip of its wines. In this exploration, we'll guide you through the art of wine pairing, focusing on the exquisite selection of local, natural wines that Hvar has to offer.

The terroir of Hvar plays a pivotal role in shaping the distinctive character of its wines. Blessed with abundant sunshine, fertile soils, and the cooling influence of the Adriatic Sea, the island creates an ideal environment for cultivating indigenous grape varieties. Grapes such as Plavac Mali, Bogdanuša, and Pošip thrive here, producing wines that capture the essence of the Mediterranean.

• Wine pairing is an adaptable art that caters to both mid-range and high-end dining experiences.
• For mid-range dinners, consider affordable wines from regions like South Dalmatia or North Croatia.
• Choices such as a medium-bodied local Cabernet Sauvignon or a Plavac Mali from the South Coast enhance the dining experience without breaking the bank.
• High-end dining calls for wines from prestigious regions like Sveta Nedilja or Ivan Dolac.
• Select a well-aged Plavac Mali red or a complex continental Chardonnay to match the sophistication of the cuisine.
• Adapting wine pairing to cost involves seeking hidden gems at various price points.
