An Insider's Take
'This isn't just a hotel—it's a working winery where ancient Roman wine-making traditions meet modern luxury in the heart of Istria's premier wine region.' What's Special? Set on a 300-year-old estate, Meneghetti produces award-winning wines from indigenous Istrian grapes like Malvazija and Teran. The property features ancient olive groves with trees over 1,700 years old, and guests can participate in harvest activities during September and October. The hotel's restaurant showcases hyper-local cuisine using ingredients grown on-site, including rare Istrian truffles found in the surrounding oak forests.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book the "Winemaker for a Day" experience to blend your own bottle of wine with master sommelier Mladen Rožani?, and time your visit during truffle season (September-December) when local hunters demonstrate their craft with trained dogs.
Don't Miss The sunset wine tasting in the estate's 18th-century stone cellars, and a visit to nearby Motovun—a medieval hilltop town just 20 minutes away that's considered the truffle capital of Istria. The hotel's private vineyard tours reveal Roman-era wine amphorae still buried in the soil.
