Croatian wines to appear in the Chinese market

Croatian Times

Croatian wine producers Franjo Toljanic and Mirjana Zelenika have engaged in a long-term deal to export their wine to the Chinese market.

The daily Novi list has reported that Toljanic and Zelenika are ready to export their wine to the city of Gulin, where they also plan to open a joint branch office.

Toljanic said: "We believe we can do a great job in the Chinese market, and that is not just because our products are good and high in quality but also because that market has a lack of wine, especially white wine."

The Zelenika family’s Source of Life estate at Ilok in the eastern part of Croatia and  the Toljanic family’s wine cellar "Gospoja" at Vrbnik on Krk Island are well-known Croatian wine producers.

They have been cooperating for the past few years. They said exporting to China demanded a lot of hard work but they would succeed.

Zelenika and Toljanic plan to export their wine in a limited edition.  The first wines to be sent to China will be the quality dry white wine Zlahtina and sparkling wines.
