Located in south-eastern Europe, in the north-western part of the Balkans peninsula, Croatia’s wines are perhaps Europe’s best kept secret. Croatia is believed to have the oldest continuously planted vineyard in the world and its wines are well worth a try. The country produces wine to suit every taste, from refreshing white wines, bold red wines, lovely rosé, sparkling wines and even sweet wines.
The Veneto region offers a wide range of wines and appellations, with perhaps the most famous being the Valpolicella. Valpolicella is a true hidden gem in the province of Verona. Just under 30 minutes’ drive from Verona and East of Lake Garda in North East Italy, the area is known as the “Pearl of Verona” and its name, a mixture of Latin and Greek, translates to “the valley of many cellars”.
