The coastal region of Croatia has a long-standing tradition in winemaking, which dates back to Ancient times. It gained acclaim thanks to the wines of Pucinia of which Pliny (1st century) says: "Her 86 years Julia Augusta could thank the wine of Pucinia for she drank only it and no other. It grows in coves along the Adriatic Sea, not far from the source of the Timava, on the ridge of a hill and bathed by the sea current. It is stored in a small number of amphorae and it is belived that there is no better remedy." It is on this tradition that villages throughout the island of Krk have based the production of their renowned wines, notably Vrbnik where such a tradition has survived to this day. The brothers Anton and Ivan Katunar have modernised the family tradition; they have built new cellars, introduced new technology and restored a century-old tradition of sparkling wine production. Alongside their renowned Žlahtina and red wines, they also produce sparkling wines.
