Croatina is a dark-skinned grape varietal predominantly grown in the Lombardy and Piedmont regions of Italy. Known for its deep color and high tannin content, wines produced from Croatina are often characterized by their full-bodied profile and flavors of dark fruits such as plums and blackberries. Some wines may also have spicy or herbal undertones. Croatina wines are typically highly acidic, making them ideal for pairing with rich or fatty foods. The grape is often used in blends to add complexity and depth.
