Kabola

If you want to experience something special in Istria, you have to try the wines of the Momjan area.

In the past, even the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy enjoyed the wines of the Momjan area. Istrian Malvazija, Muscat, Refosco, Teran, Merlot and Cabernet sauvignon are typical varieties of extraordinary color and aroma.

The house has been producing wine since 1891, using a forward-looking approach with respect for the past.
