Zagreb, Ljubuški, Pelješac and Ilok offer another fun wine weekend

Vinski grad (Wine City) opened in Zagreb on 24 June at Dr. Franjo Tuđman Square and runs until 6 July. Wines arrive from all four Croatian wine regions, along with wines from Slovenia, North Macedonia, France and Italy. There are also plenty of workshops, whose schedule is available on the website vinart.hr. Glasses of red Trnjak presented at Trnjak Fest.

In Ljubuški, on Saturday 28 June, Trnjak Fest is dedicated to the brilliant Herzegovinian-Dalmatian red variety that long served merely as a pollinator for Blatina. Only in 2012 did the Nuić winery make the first single-varietal wine from it, which delighted tasters even though it was not yet for sale, and in 2013 it officially reached the market. Today there are some thirty producers on both sides of the border, and the festival in Ljubuški is certainly a tasting opportunity not to be missed. Pelješac specialities and wines served during the Festival of Pelješac Flavours on the Pelješac peninsula.

The Festival of Pelješac Flavours runs until 28 June. Specialities of Pelješac cuisine will be on offer and, of course, wines. As part of the Festival, visitors can expect a 20 percent discount on all wines at the Bezek, Dežulović, Grgurević and Pelješki vrhovi PZ Janjina wineries in Janjina and at PZ Putniković in Putnikovići. A 20 percent discount on food and wine is offered by Konoba Feral in Brijesta, Antonio in Zamaslina, Kavana Janjina in Janjina, Konoba Testa in Sreser and Mul 22 in Drače. A sparkling breakfast at the Papak winery with sparkling wines and Slavonian delicacies.

On Saturday, 28 June, there is also the Sparkling Breakfast at the Papak winery in Ilok. This year the Tourist Board of the Vukovar-Srijem County organised a free tourist train that will carry the first 50 guests from Ilok to the winery. Departure is from the Ilok Cellars at nine o’clock.
