Sažetak
The wine tradition in the Republic of Croatia from its easternmost vine- growing hills of Ilok to the southern vine-growing hills of Konavle comprises the production of varietal wines. Planting new vineyards and introducing new grape varieties results in numerous new wines in accordance with legal framework. Ecological climatic conditions, primarily temperature and the amount of precipitations, important for cultivation and assurance of the technological quality of grapes as the basis for the production of quality wines, are constantly changing. Likewise, the former boundaries of planting certain vine varieties (Vitis vinifera) are definitely moved, the sortiment is moved from south to north, and the crucial role for the final quality of wine belongs to knowledge and adjustment to new conditions.
Varietal wines are still leading brands in Croatian production, and along with the quality wines originating from the limited areas, which are a part of our heritage and unquestionable for the production of the best quality wines, the number of new wines and new grape varieties has been in constant growth even in the new areas which are also characterized by excellent quality.
