Our story

Winery Karaba in Pakoštane is a family-run winery set above Lake Vrana, offering stunning views and an amazing tasting experience. Run by father and son, Milivoj and Šime Kurtov, the winery focuses on indigenous Croatian grape varieties and limited production to ensure quality. With its modern cellar, elegant tasting terrace, and personal “vine to bottle” approach, Karaba stands out as a unique and authentic wine destination in Dalmatia.

Our unique location

Winery Karaba’s location above Lake Vrana gives it a truly unique character—both visually and viticulturally. The elevated position offers panoramic views and a tranquil setting for tastings, while the proximity to the lake creates a distinctive microclimate. Warm days and cool nights help the grapes develop balanced sugars and acidity, resulting in fresh, expressive wines. This natural harmony between land and climate is a key factor in the authenticity and quality of Karaba’s wines.
