Decanter 2025 Winners Showcase by Vinistra
Held in Istria, the enchanting wine region of Croatia, this exclusive showcase celebrates the medal winners at Decanter World Wine Awards 2025. Surrounded by the shimmering Adriatic Sea, Istria is not only a premier tourist destination, but also a haven for wine lovers, offering a rich wine culture, vibrant marine life, and an exceptional gastronomic scene that fuses Mediterranean and Central European influences.
The three-day wine study tour is a true indulgence for wine enthusiasts, featuring intimate winery visits, a masterclass led by Dr.Caroline Gilby MW, and culminating in a grand seaside tasting by the Adriatic—what a treat! The spotlight is on Malvasia and Teran, the signature grape varieties of Istria. Most wineries are family-owned estates, where generations of passion and craftsmanship come to life. Impressively, many producers sell the majority of their wines directly through their cellar doors, offering visitors a personal and authentic connection to Istrian wine culture.
