Meneghetti Wine Hotel & Winery

If you're in search of a unique place, off the beaten track where the world stands still, then Meneghetti Wine Hotel & Winery could be your ideal Istrian oasis

Located along narrow lanes near the village of Bale, the striking iron gates of the Meneghetti estate open up in front of you.

Meneghetti has a great history, when the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy first quietly and then quickly and strongly took over Istria, a smart man called Meneghetti decided to buy many acres of land and start producing food, to feed the soldiers. He started building houses, barns, planting vineyards and olive groves. Abandoned by all the former armies, owners, and accidental passers-by, overgrown in Mediterranean underbrush, the estate was re-discovered in the early 2000s by the current owners.

Meneghetti Wine Hotel & Winery is now a true beauty made of century-old stone, evoking respect towards the tradition of its region. Meneghetti is a symbol of luxury, an oasis of peace and quiet surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Its winery and outstanding restaurant provide a highly personalized service offering premium, world-renowned and award-winning wines and olive oils. With 40 rooms ranging from luxurious 3 bedroom villas with a terrace garden and private pool, to one of the 30 contemporary-designed residences that offer one or two bedrooms to the ten luxury rooms and suites each with a view that opens out to the charming vineyards and olive groves - the accommodation here will help create the most beautiful memories.

You can enjoy lunch at the pool bar Olivetto, dinner in the restaurant, and wine in the lounge bar. All the dishes are creatively presented and expertly made, prepared from fresh, authentic, and local ingredients chosen seasonally.

The ‘Red Land' (terra rossa) around the Meneghetti Wine Hotel is a hard and poor soil, richer in stone than soil, intense, mineral, and rich in iron, favourable for the cultivating red wine grapes. The wines are produced using contemporary technologies that reflect the uniqueness of Istria, at the same time crossing the boundaries with its character and quality.
