History
The Sveti Urban hill above Križovljan is Međimurje's most-photographed vineyard slope — 45° terraces striped with pinot gris and yellow muscat and topped by a tiny 18th-century chapel to the patron saint of winemakers. Cellar doors along the ridge road pour by the glass all summer.
“Grasses and vines here grow on the same slopes noted in a 1334 tax record — some of the earliest wine documentation in Croatia.”
