This wonderful initiative came from Anna M. Viducic, a founder of Aroma Wine Co. As she explained: “#NationalCroatianWineDay celebrates Croatia’s Independence Day on June 25, and it highlights Croatia’s unique wine history dating back to 2500 years”, said Ms Viducic, adding that “Croatia is a home to an estimated 120 indigenous grape varietals and four key wine regions – Croatian Uplands, Dalmatia, Istria and Kvarner, and Slavonia and Croatian Danube, 16 sub-regions and 66 appellations…” She is born into a Croatian family and raised in Paris, France, and she spent most of her summer vacations in Croatia, enjoying everything that the country has to offer, including working in her family’s vineyards. “Wine is in my DNA, and I am making it my mission to promote Croatian wines globally”, said Ms Viducic.
Since June 2020, ‘National Croatian Wine Day’ has been a registered wine holiday in the United States.
National Croatian Wine Day will be celebrated each year on Croatia’s Independence Day on June 25, the day when the Croatian Parliament declared its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991. National Croatian Wine Day highlights Croatia’s unique wine history dating back to 2,500 years.
