International Women’s Day Discount and Harvest Tour Gift Certificate
Today we’d like to raise a glass to all women who are working hard in the wine and travel businesses.
Whether these women are winemakers, agronomists, tour operators or business leaders, and in many cases all of the above, their contribution to the Croatian wine industry and the country’s oeno-gastro offering is significant.
We celebrate with a 15% discount on wines from these award-winning wineries with the trailblazing women at the helm — from Istria, Slavonia and Dalmatia. And then check the Adventures with Sarah harvest tour to Croatia and Slovenia.
- Antunović Winery – Jasna, the founder and owner of this boutique winery on the Danube, has received numerous awards, including Decanter Platinum
- Iločki Podrumi – this winery’s entire team of oenologists comprises women, led by Ivana, and they continuously produce high quality wines, even served at the British court.
- Kabola Winery – Patricija and Ana, mother/daughter duo, are the soul of this picturesque winery in Buje, the first one to start producing amphora wines in Croatia.
- Kutjevo 1232 — cellars formed in 1232, now have Mirela at the helm of the company as CEO – Mirela started her role as an agronomist and influenced the development of new wines such as the Rosé premium
- Prović Vina – Monika is leading Vino Dalmacije association, while also working with her brother on producing wines in the family-owned boutique winery in the Neretva Valley.
- Ritoša Vina – Ana is owner and winemaker who makes a point to create wines that portray the coastal flavor of Istria.
- Terra Madre – with Vedrana, Gorana and Lucija in key roles, the breathtaking winery and tasting venue are run with impeccable planning and smiles while producing great quality wines.
Just as we collaborate with Croatian wineries, we proudly support women businesses including Adventures with Sarah, which is organizing the Harvest Tour, a 10 nights/11 days Croatia and Slovenia tour featuring seven tastings at wineries along with many other food/wine pairings at restaurants. Some of the wineries include the 7-times Decanter Gold winner Fakin Winery at Motovun, and premiere sparkling wine maker Jagunić Winery in Plešivica, and others in Slovenia. To get a gift certificate, use code “FakinAmazing” to let Sarah’s team know you are part of our wine family. More info here.
We hope this weekend springs you forward in more than one dimension – from time changing on Sunday and supporting women businesses this month, to a positive outlook with warmer weather.
