My absolute favorite moment in Croatia. This gorgeous winery is set apart from the busy city center. You feel like you are out in the middle of a quiet and private mountainside park. The inside is beautiful but we opted to sit outside on their gorgeous patio because the weather was so nice. We did a full wine tasting, trying 7 different Croatian wines made by the Degarra winery. this included everything from sparkling, whites, Reds, and an Aromatic wine (my first one ever) Our server was so kind and spent time explaining things to us and being patient with my many questions even though he was the only one working when we arrived and had multiple tables/Clients.

Read moreWhen we drove by one evening we were a little bit late but even though Mauro offered us some wines to taste but mentioned that for a real wine tasting we had to come back again.

We recommend giving them a call before arriving so that they can let you know about everything and prepare the tasting as they...

We had 7 wines tasting and he had great knowledge about wine and we got a story of how two friends started Degarra in the garage, Also we got beautiful smoked meat and cheese and we had lot of fun with our lovely host who gave us his full attention and entertained us. All wine was very good, my favourite was white sparkling wine. We ended up buying few bottles for our friends. We enjoyed a lot, so instead of 20 min, we ended up staying there few hours! Beautiful wine but all experience was very special thanks to our host. I don’t get his name unfortunately. All in all, I can highly...
