Six Croatian wines and the story behind every glass
Wine tasting Zagreb at Time4Wine: Croatia in a glass
Croatia in a Glass is the guided wine tasting Zagreb visitors and locals can book in the Upper Town. For €35 per person, our team pours six Croatian wines at your table, three whites, two reds and a rosé, with a shot of rakija on the house.
Inside the Croatian wine tasting: three whites, two reds, one rosé
Tasting six wines in a row shows you contrasts that a single glass never will. The six come from different parts of Croatia and from different grapes, so by the last glass you’ll have a clear idea of which Croatian styles suit you.
The rakija is there for a reason. In Croatian homes, a small glass of it is how a guest gets welcomed, and we keep that habit at our tables. If it wins you over, the bar also pours plum, quince, apricot and honey rakija at €3.50 a shot.

Is our wine tasting in Zagreb right for you?
It’s built for two kinds of guests. If Croatian wine is completely new to you, the team turns six unfamiliar labels into a short, friendly introduction, with no wine vocabulary needed. If you already know wine well, it’s a fast way to place Croatia’s styles next to the ones you drink at home, with someone on hand to answer the detailed questions.
And if you’re putting together a list of things to do in Zagreb, the tasting fits easily into an evening in Gornji grad.
