Where: Hotel Slovenija, Portorož, Slovenia

When: 16, 17 March, 2014

What: Festival Malvasia

16th Festival Malvazija (Malvasia) is the event specially dedicated to this the most represented white vine variety in Istria (Slovenia, Croatia and Italy). 67 Vineries from Istria, Goriška Brda /Collio, Vipavska dolina, Kras /Carso presented from fresh to mature Malvasia in hotel Slovenia in Portorož. As I am concerned Malvasia is one of my very dear wines, with its lively smell, taste and aftertaste. At the 3 day event there were organized a few workshops. I also vent to roundtable which was about Istrian Malvasia borderless. Winemakers neighboring Croatia and Slovenia have already some time ago, signed a letter of intent on accessing the market under the brand name Istrian Malvasia. Conversation took place in this direction, although concrete actions were not presented in roundtable.
