Trained as an ethnologist, Andrej\u2019s passion for wine took him to Italy, where he worked in prestigious regions such as Friuli and Chianti Classico. Today, he blends that experience with Istrian heritage, creating wines that respect the past while embracing the future.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Quality Over Quantity<\/strong><\/h3><p>Fiore cultivates around 20 hectares of vineyards, 80% planted with <strong>Istrian Malvasia<\/strong>. The rest is dedicated to Refo\u0161k, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and a few other varieties. Since 2013, they have produced wine exclusively from their own grapes \u2013 nothing is sold off.<br>Harvest is always done by hand, not only to ensure quality but also as a gesture of respect toward the vines. For wines intended for maceration or extended aging, this careful selection is essential.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" data-src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-179814 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002.jpg 800w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-629x420.jpg 629w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-600x401.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/534;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-179814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002.jpg 800w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-629x420.jpg 629w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fiore_wine_002-600x401.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fiore winery<\/figcaption><\/figure><div class=\"vlp-link-container vlp-layout-basic wp-block-visual-link-preview-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/en\/gastronomy\/food\/10-delicious-must-try-croatian-traditional-dishes\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"10 Delicious Must-Try Croatian Traditional Dishes\"><\/a><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-side\"><div class=\"vlp-block-2 vlp-link-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/113;max-width: 150px;\" width=\"150\" height=\"113\" data-src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake.jpg\" class=\"attachment-150x999 size-150x999 lazyload\" alt=\"\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake.jpg 480w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-265x198.jpg 265w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 150px;\" width=\"150\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake.jpg\" class=\"attachment-150x999 size-150x999\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake.jpg 480w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rabs-Cake-265x198.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-main\"><div class=\"vlp-block-0 vlp-link-title\">10 Delicious Must-Try Croatian Traditional Dishes<\/div><div class=\"vlp-block-1 vlp-link-summary\">Croatia is a country rich in history, culture, and &#8211; traditional dishes!
