Babos - Wine Taste of Vodnjan

In the peaceful alley of the Vodnjan’s Babos neighbourhood there is a family winery bearing the same name. Mother Lorella comes from the Vodnjan’s family Giacometti, while father Gugliemo Moscarda is from the neighbouring place of Galižana. Together they blend continuation of at least one century old family traditions of wine making and olive growing, despite also traditional enmity between Vodnjan and Galižana. Their sons Matteo and Luca are oenologists and work diligently f

Agritourism Sia - Champion Cheese from the Istrian Sheep

“Write everything I say, don’t be like other journalists!”, warns us Mr Franko while we sip a glass of rose rakija. “But they are here for gastronomy, they are not political journalists”, shouts Mrs Stana from the background, who made the rakija herself as every other kind on the shelf of the restaurant within the Agritourism Sia near Vodnjan. Mr Franko Cetina, the winner of numerous awards for the sheep cheese and president of the Istrian association of sheep and goat herder

Days of Young Olive Oil in Vodnjan

Vodnjan for many means only one thing – the extra-virgin olive oil. Even during the Roman times, Vodnjan and its surroundings have been one of the most important areas for the production and processing of olive oil. This tradition of production continues today when many family producers try to position their olive oil on the market. The offer is visible from the very walk through Vodnjan. In its narrow streets and old squares, Vodnjan or Dignano in Italian, is full of small o

Medea - A Word for Passion

It is one of such places on Earth where you want to go to forget everything, take several cases of books, buy some cheese along the way, and care for the vines for the rest of your life. No, we weren’t at the Punta Greca (we wouldn’t write this ‘cos we’d be willingly stranded on this cape), but we were at the owner of the vineyard there. It is the Medea winery, one of the Istria’s finest. It is

Vodnjanka - Recipes from the Old

A wine maker is looking at us from the wall. And the lady from the window, as well as the carpenter, cooper, olive oil producer, peasant, the lady in waiting, carrier and so many other characters taken out from the historical oblivion of Vodnjan. It is a permanent exhibition wall of the restaurant Vodnjanka, a testimony of the town-village divide in an area characterised by both Croatian and Italian influences. The remnants of these stories are carried further in the authenti
