Istria is considered to be the gourmet capital of Croatia, and it is famed for its truffles, olive oil and wine. It is also a region with excellent local family producers, who are working hard to showcase the natural gourmet treasures of the region, often in an innovative way.
Have you ever come across a honey and wine pairing tasting, for example? Pay a visit to Vina Andjelini in Velanov Brijeg, near Pazin in Central Istria, a delightful family business hidden away in the trees at the end of a narrow road.
The team from the Central Istria Gourmet Getaway paid a visit this week to check out wine pairing with honey, as well as a tour of this charming family estate.
