Heritage & Philosophy

The story of Terra Madre's vineyards began with the arduous reclamation of rocky terrain in the youngest Croatian wine region, Komarna, with the first vines planted in 2008. Their philosophy is rooted in this demanding process, transforming stone into fertile ground for ecological wine production, emphasizing regional pride and the unique expression of the Dalmatian terroir.

Regional roots

For the Balkan/Eastern European diaspora in California, Terra Madre represents the modern resurgence of Croatian winemaking, particularly from the distinct and relatively new Komarna region. Their commitment to ecological production and native grape varieties offers a taste of authentic Dalmatian heritage and quality that resonates deeply with those seeking to connect with their roots.
