Wine station Trapan — Attraction in Općina Ližnjan

A Hidden Gem of Warmth and Excellence of ISTRIA

We had the pleasure of visiting Bruno and Irene's winery during our recent trip to Croatia, and it was an experience I'll cherish forever. From the moment we stepped onto their property, I was greeted with the warmth of their hospitality and the enchanting presence of their 24 dogs.

The wine tasting journey was nothing short of magical. Each bottle not only carried a rich history but also a depth of flavor that spoke volumes about their dedication to natural winemaking. Learning about their transition from industrial wine to their private vine house was both inspiring and eye-opening.

What impressed me the most was their commitment to producing wines free from chemicals and oxides, ensuring not only a delightful taste but also a refreshing day after indulging. Their home, adorned with modern design elements and immaculate upkeep, was a true reflection of their passion for excellence in every aspect.

Thank you, Bruno and Irene, for opening your hearts and doors to us. Your winery is more than just a place to savor exceptional wines—it's a sanctuary of warmth, authenticity, and genuine hospitality. I eagerly look forward to the opportunity to return and bask once again in the beauty of your vineyard and the joy of your company.

Really...

First of all i want to say that we enjoyed wisit to Trapan, and the wines were excellent! 😏 great variety of tastes! But as we chose VIP service and booked it in advance, we were a little big shocked - when we arrived, no one was waiting for us and no one expected us. After some discussion host find out that we have reservation. Most probably Bruno (the host) is a nice guy, but as a host he didn't deliver... He always was in a hurry, did not provide us with winery history and daily tasks... In general tour was about to be nightmare... But be were lucy as Bruno father in law was very nice, he was very great host, showed aš winery (after our request) and told us as much as he knows. In general tasting gave us nice experience, but it has to be hosted much better... We still great full for a wine...

It's a rare to come across wines where the true essence of the grapes shines through. We've experienced this once in Slovenia, and now for the first time in Croatia. This winery was a revelation – from its scenic tasting place to the exceptional products. But what truly sets it apart is the heart and soul behind it, Bruno. His passion and dedication are palpable in every sip. Congratulations on crafting such outstanding wines. We'll undoubtedly return, having found our new “the one” winery. Highly recommended!
