Vina Matošević: Malvasia wines and tastings in Krunčići

Updated October 8, 2026.

Closed. Opens on tomorrow 10:00.

At the Matošević winery in Krunčići, you can choose from four guided programmes. Classic, Premium and Portfolio tastings include local bites.

Different styles of Istrian Malvasia

Istrian Malvasia forms the core of the range: the fresh Alba, aged Alba Riserva, skin-macerated Alba Antiqua and Alba Robinia, which matures on its lees for twelve months in acacia barrels. Alba Robinia 2022 was awarded a gold medal at the 2026 Decanter World Wine Awards. The portfolio also includes the Grimalda, Aura, Ombra, Neo and Mora ranges, so a tasting is not limited to a single grape variety or style.

Four tasting formats

The Classic tasting includes three wines, Premium five, and Portfolio six wines, a liqueur wine and grape marc spirit. All three include a cellar tour and small bites such as hard Istrian cheese, beef sausage, bread, dried fruit and olive oil produced by the winery.

Wine Cellar Escape is a separate option for a smaller group, combining wine tasting with tasks in the cellar. The programmes last approximately one to one and a half hours, while group size depends on the selected format.

Arranging a visit

Tastings should be arranged in advance, especially for a specific programme or group visit. Send an enquiry through the portal.
