Brajkovići: Find hotels for wine and culture

For a trip to Brajkovići, the wine tastings at Vinarija Radanović offer a concrete point of interest. Music and literary events, as well as the nearby cultural and historical setting of Trviž, add to the appeal. These themes suit different travel interests: wine, literary expression and religious history.

Wine tastings in different weather

In good weather, tastings are held beneath two centuries-old oak trees. In cold or rainy weather, they take place in an indoor hall with 30 seats. If you specifically want to taste wine outdoors, the weather is especially relevant when planning; the indoor hall is intended for cold and rain.

Wines and food pairings

Vinarija Radanović presents six wine labels, including a fresh Malvasia that has received numerous awards. For Teran 2022, the winery recommends blue fish, red meat dishes and aged cheese. The two wines therefore offer different points of interest: the Malvasia is highlighted for its awards, while the Teran is paired with specific food recommendations. This recommendation refers specifically to the 2022 vintage.

Music and literature alongside wine

Wine&Music at Radanović combines live music with wine beneath the night sky of central Istria. The event has been organised over several years. Vinarija Radanović also launched the Festival of Wine & Poetry in 2022. Its aim is to promote literary creation and expression in the Čakavian dialect. The competition focuses on poems about wine, winemaking and Istrian tradition.

The two events have different focuses: Wine&Music brings together music and wine, while the festival highlights literature and the Čakavian dialect. If you want to plan your trip around a particular tasting or event date, check the date in advance.

Church and cultural heritage in nearby Trviž

Brajkovići belongs to the parish area of Trviž. Trviž itself is a protected cultural and historical ensemble. The Church of St Peter there dates back to the 11th or 12th century. Walls of the nave and remnants of frescoes have been preserved; there is also a Glagolitic inscription. A Gothic custodia was discovered during conservation work in 2004.

For travellers interested in culture, this offers a specific point of interest near Brajkovići: in Trviž, the church's long history, architectural traces and fresco remnants are complemented by the discovery of the custodia. The church is in Trviž, so it is distinct from the wine tastings associated with Brajkovići.

Combine your reason for travelling with your hotel search

If you are looking for a hotel for a trip to Brajkovići, you can start by considering whether tastings, music and literature, or nearby Trviž will be the main focus of your plans. If you are planning around a tasting or event, it is a good idea to check the date in advance.
