Vinarija Vuina

Vinarija Vuina, a family-owned winery in Kaštela, Croatia, has been producing wine for over a century with a strong focus on preserving traditional methods while incorporating modern techniques. The winery is particularly known for its Crljenak Štafileo wines, which are made from the autochthonous Dalmatian grape variety of the same name. This grape variety, also known as Primitivo in Italy and Zinfandel in California, has been recognized by scientists to have an identical genetic profile with American Zinfandel, making it a unique and valuable asset for Croatian winemaking. The winery's production technology combines traditional and modern methods, resulting in high-quality wines that showcase the best of Dalmatian terroir. The Vuina family owns vineyards on the west side of Kaštela-Trogir vineyards, where they grow a range of grape varieties, including Babica Štafileo, Plavac Štafileo, and Crljenak Kaštelanski Rose. The winery's wines are available for tasting at their cellar, which offers a personal touch due to the family's involvement in every step of the production process. The Crljenak Štafileo wine is particularly notable for its strong and rich smell and taste, making it an excellent pairing for roasted and spicy dishes.
