How they manage that, year after year, is amazing.<br> <br> Of course, I ended up doing almost twice as many as I needed but when you see the guest list below I think it’s clear why I got carried away.<br> The wineries are in all cases organic, sustainable, terroir driven, just pure fruit and the work of time.<br> No additives, no tricks.

If you listen to the pride on Emil’s voice I think you may understand how they became one of the World’s true wine countries.<br> <a href="http://www.stina-vino.hr/en">www.stina-vino.hr/en</a><br> Wendy Vallester – pouring Wines of Spain.<br> The last time I saw Wendy we were sitting on a sidewalk in Ribera del Duero Spain.
