Primorje, situated along the Adriatic coast of Croatia, is a region of stunning beauty and rich winemaking heritage that has increasingly embraced natural winemaking practices. With its Mediterranean climate, diverse terroir, and proximity to the sea, Primorje offers ideal conditions for cultivating indigenous grape varieties such as Malvazija Istarska and Teran. Winemakers here are dedicated to sustainable viticulture, employing organic and biodynamic farming methods to nurture the vines and preserve the health of the land. In the cellar, minimal intervention is paramount, with spontaneous fermentations and aging in neutral vessels allowing the true expression of the grapes and terroir to shine through. The resulting natural wines from Primorje are a reflection of the region's pristine beauty and rich winemaking tradition, with their vibrant flavors, elegant textures, and a sense of place that captures the essence of Croatia's coastal charm.
