Malvazija and Teran from Cantina Benvenuti represent an authentic sensory journey into the heart of Istrian wine tradition, a territory rich in history and unique terroir. Malvazija, with its elegant and complex aromatic profile, expresses vibrant floral and fruity notes in the glass, supported by a fresh minerality typical of vineyards cultivated on soils rich in skeleton. Teran, imbued with character and robustness, offers the palate an explosion of ripe red fruits, accompanied by lively acidity and well-structured tannins, an expression of the native grape variety that adapts well to the local climate.

Both wines are the result of careful traditional vinification, which enhances territorial identity without artifices, with a calibrated aging that allows freshness and aromatic power to be maintained. Perfect with flavorful fish dishes and white meats for Malvazija, and with specialties based on red meat or aged cheeses for Teran. A celebration of Istria in a bottle.
