As we close October, we are preparing for the Martinje celebration during the last of our Masterclass Series this year. Martinje takes place on November 11th, the day of St. Martin, the patron saint of winemakers and winegrowers. It is one of Croatia’s most joyful and deeply rooted folk traditions with the symbolic “christening” or transformation of the grape must into young wine, which marks the end of the wine calendar year. The virtual Masterclass will take place on November 11 at 8 pm Eastern/5 pm Pacific, and we will focus on wines from the two northern wine regions, the Croatian Uplands and Slavonia & Danube.
If you are new to this Masterclass series, please register to get the zoom link. Links to the slides and video recording will be sent to all registrants after the event.
Purchase is not necessary to attend the Masterclass, but if you’d like to taste along, here is a link to the Northern Regions Bundle at 15% off. To ensure arrival on time for this Masterclass, place an order by:
