Savina Winery
Situated at the entrance of the Bay of Kotor- near the Savina Monastery- is a perfect spot for you to enjoy high quality wine. The Savina Winery is a hidden gem that offers breath-taking natural views from the Savina hillside, in the town of Meljine in Herceg Novi.
Encompassed by luscious Mediterranean vegetation and trees, this seventeen-year-old vinery personifies the passion the owners hold for family traditions and luxury wines alike.
The finest grapes are carefully harvested from the sun kissed vineyards and transformed into fully nurtured wine within the French oak barrels of the estate cellar.
The many varieties of wine available pair perfectly with the mouth-watering Mediterranean cuisine on the menu. We’d recommend the excellent Rose Grenache, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Alternatively, high quality brandies such as Travarica and Loza are also produced by the Savina Winery.
This small, boutique winery will definitely be an experience to remember.

Meneghetti Wine Hotel & Winery
The Meneghetii hotel and winery is approximately 45 minutes from Pula port, or 40 minutes from Rovinji.
Located in the lovely Istria country, this is a highly recommended spot surrounded by famous national parks, lovely cities, and fabulous islands.
Since the early 19th century, this hidden rural estate has been known as one of the most beautiful mansions in the Mediterranean. Almost 100 years ago, this place was a well-known refuge for Austro-Hungarian arm officers.
20 years ago, a close family with a passion for Istria found the abandoned spot and decided it would be a beautiful location for a hotel and winery. The family have invested an abundance of love and patience throughout the years, creating a luxurious atmosphere and service that will fascinate you. Rather than ruin the nature that surrounds their business, they carefully maintain the environment and utilise it to make great wines.
