Our story. Our Wine Store.
Croatian fine wine in Ireland.
Liliane Scully was originally known for her property development and sales company Adriatic Riviera which specialized in apartment sales to Irish and UK nationals in the greater Istrian region. It did not take her long to realise her passion for sourcing artisan-produced wines and this aided her transition from property developer to craft a dynamic niche wine importation business. She has cultivated a strong and personable relationship with her principals in Istria and has developed an excellent understanding of the wine producers’ viticultural philosophy and winemaking techniques. Her Adriatico wine store is eager to share these secrets with the Irish audience.

Our Mission.
Enjoy the taste and elegance of Croatian wines. Your senses will be seduced forever.
Vision - the wine of choice.
The Istrian wine making tradition is deeply ingrained in this region and dates back to Roman times. While the demands on production has greatly increased the cultivation of the grape has not changed. Particular emphasis is placed on sustainable farming and chemical free cultivation. Fortified with the endorsements of the ancient connoisseurs and empowered by the artisan wine producers Liliane embarked on this journey of introducing quality Istrian wines to Ireland. Her vision that Croatian wine in Ireland be recognised for its quality, value and superb taste.
The Awards.
Croatia has been producing wines since Roman times and is consistently achieving recognition at various award ceremonies including Decanter World Wine Awards and the International Wine challenge. Visit our online store to view our current award-winning selection.
