Croatian wine has a history dating back to the Ancient Greek settlers, and their wine production on the southern Dalmatian islands of Vis, Hvar and Korčula some 2,500 years ago. Like other old world wine producers, many traditional grape varieties still survive in Croatia, perfectly suited to their local wine hills. Modern wine-production methods have taken over in the larger wineries, and EU-style wine regulations have been adopted, guaranteeing the quality of the wine.
There are currently over 300 geographically defined wine regions, and a strict classification system to ensure quality and origin. The majority of Croatian wine is white, with most of the remainder being red, and only a small percentage is rosé wines.
Wine is a popular drink in Croatia, and locals traditionally like to drink wine with their meals. Quite often, the wine is diluted with either still or sparkling water – producing a drink known as gemišt (a combination of white wine and carbonated water), and bevanda (a combination of red wine and still water).
克罗地亚葡萄酒的历史可以追溯到古希腊定居者,并在大约2500年前在达尔马提亚南部的Vis,Hvar和 Korčula岛上生产葡萄酒。与其他旧世界葡萄酒生产商一样,许多传统葡萄品种仍然在克罗地亚生存,非常适合当地的葡萄酒山丘。现代葡萄酒生产方法已经在较大的葡萄酒厂实行,并采用欧盟风格的葡萄酒法规,保证了葡萄酒的质量。
目前有超过300个地理定义的葡萄酒产区,并有严格的分类系统,以确保质量和来源。克罗地亚的大部分葡萄酒都是白葡萄酒,其余大部分是红葡萄酒,只有一小部分是桃红葡萄酒。
葡萄酒是克罗地亚的一种受欢迎的饮品,当地人传统上喜欢在用餐时喝葡萄酒。很多时候,葡萄酒用静水或苏打水稀释 – 生产一种叫做gemišt(白葡萄酒和碳酸水的组合)的饮料,以及bevanda(红葡萄酒和静水的组合)。
Croatia has two main wine regions: Continental and Coastal, which includes the islands.
克罗地亚有两个主要的葡萄酒产区:大陆和沿海,其中包括岛屿。
The inland wine region, stretching from north-west to south-east along the Drava and Sava rivers, has a typical continental climate with cold winters and hot summers. Production is concentrated in white wine varieties. The best-known area within this region is Slavonia, and the most widely planted grape is Graševina, which yields light, crisp, refreshing, mildly aromatic wines.
内陆葡萄酒产区沿着德拉瓦河和萨瓦河从西北向东南延伸,具有典型的大陆性气候,冬季寒冷,夏季炎热。 生产集中在白葡萄酒品种。 该地区最着名的地区是斯拉沃尼亚(Slavonia),最广泛种植的葡萄是Graševina,它产生清淡,清爽,清爽,温和的芳香葡萄酒。
The coastal wine region runs from Istria in the north to Dalmatia to the south. The Mediterranean climate, with long, hot dry summers and mild, short, wet winters is particularly well suited to wine production. In Istria and the north coast, the focus is on fruity, dry white wines from a wide range of grape varieties, but mostly Malvazija, as well as bold, dry reds including Teran. Further south, in Dalmatia, the islands and hillsides have an infinite variety of microclimates resulting in a winegrowing area where terroir is a crucially important factor. A wide range of indigenous grape varietals are grown here, the best known being Plavac Mali, the child of Zinfandel and Dobričić.
沿海葡萄酒产区从北部的伊斯特拉(Istria)到南部的达尔马提亚(Dalmatia)。 地中海气候,夏季炎热干燥,冬季温和,短暂,潮湿,特别适合葡萄酒生产。 在伊斯特拉和北部海岸,主要生产干型且果香浓郁的白葡萄酒,Malvazija占据主导品种位置,还生产包括Teran在内的奔放型干红葡萄酒。 再往南,在达尔马提亚,岛屿和山坡上有各种各样的小气候,形成了一个个风土因素主导的葡萄种植区。 这里种植了各种各样的本土葡萄品种,最著名的是Plavac Mali,Zinfandel和Dobričić。
