Wine is best shared where you feel at home.
The best way to understand a place is through its table. Around Dubrovnik, that table has always held local wine, a little cheese and prosciutto — and time to talk.
Many visitors leave Croatia without tasting the wines that grow a short drive from where they stayed. CroVino exists to change that — by bringing the region's signature wines, and the stories behind them, directly to you.
CroVino doesn't sell wine — we offer an experience: discovery, atmosphere and the kind of evening you will still talk about long after you have flown home.
Meet Ante.
Your Host and Wine Guide
Behind every CroVino experience is Ante, a wine enthusiast whose journey has taken him from the vineyards of California to the historic wine traditions of Dubrovnik.
After spending five vintages working with Zinfandel grapes and wine in California, Ante developed a firsthand appreciation for the dedication, craftsmanship and stories behind every bottle.
Back home in Dubrovnik, he shared his knowledge and enthusiasm as a wine educator at the Wine Museum Dubrovnik, introducing visitors from around the world to the fascinating world of Croatian wines.
His approach is simple: wine should be enjoyable, approachable and shared.
Whether you're discovering Croatian wine for the first time or already know your favourite varieties, Ante makes every tasting an opportunity to learn something new, enjoy exceptional wines and create lasting memories.
