He will guide you through his selection, making you really appreciate the craft of winemaking, so you can bring the best bottle home for dinner or as a souvenir from your coastal holiday.
THE ART OF WINE TASTING
Klub Gurmana i Hedonista also host the The Art of Wine tasting where you really get an insight into Croatian wines. The tasting consists of four wines paired with seven Dalmatian specialities such as sardines, octopus, cheeses from Pag and olive oil (an sometimes a cheeky grappa on the side), presented by Igor or another oenophile for 200KN. They run these daily tastings in the summer at 13:00 and 20:00 but you can always call ahead to request another time. In the winter, tastings are available upon request.
The shop is situated in the charming Radunica neighborhood just 10 minutes from Riva, heading east on Ulica Kralja Zvonimira, passing Villa Diana and tasting the next left turn down a small alley.
