Winery Description:

Moreno Degrassi is one of the most important winemakers of the Istrian wine scene, who produces and nurtures a variety of wines on his estate, located in the extreme northwest of Istria - in Bašanija near Slovenia. Although the Degrassi family has a longer winemaking and viticultural tradition, the Degrassi winery officially began its operations in 1996. What distinguishes this top winemaker is his love for wine, experience, hard work, calmness, patience, dedication to tradition, modesty, self-effacement, but also a tendency to research. He likes variety in wine, and his coupages are widely known and appreciated, which is why he is often called the 'king of coupages'. Winery Degrassi, in addition to creating top wines, is oriented towards ecological production. Namely, although they have always tried to nurture the vineyards as much as possible in harmony with nature, since 2019 they have completely switched to an ecological approach.
