This year marked a significant milestone as we celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Yachting & Wine event, a decade-long journey of passion, and shared memories. Yachting & Wine meetings have not only been a gathering but also an opportunity to connect and exchange ideas among experts from the nautical industry. The tenth anniversary celebration was another hedonistic, homely and gastronomic experience. This year’s celebration was also an opportunity to reflect on achievements, plans for the future, but above all thanks for the friendship that marked this unique event, a synonym for socializing in a natural environment in the Šibenik region at the Baraka Winery location.
The 10th Anniversary celebration brought together long-standing partners, new friends, and a community.
Our celebration was especially festive, marked by gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success over the past decade with a warm welcome by Adria Libar CEO Renata Knežić Rak and Filip Baraka owner of the Baraka Winery.
“Ten years of the Yachting & Wine meeting represents an incredible success and symbolizes our commitment to the promotion of nautical. Aware of how we have maintained continuity even in challenging times, we would like to thank everyone who is building this successful story with us – lecturers, employees, advisors, partners, media”, said the director of Adria Libar Renata Knežić Rak.
“This event has become a tradition that brings people together, it will encourage the exchange of knowledge and experiences, promoting the beauty and charms of sailing and wine”, said the owner of the Baraka winery and led the guests through the wine cellars, revealing the secrets of wine production.
The gathering continued with a lecture by Green Sail and Ornela Krežić on the preservation of natural resources and the promotion of sustainable practices for the future in nautical tourism. And this year, along with a superb menu, jazz & blues rhythm, we enjoyed tasting the wines of the Baraka winery, which respect the terroir and the Šibenik climate, with a view of 10,500 vines on the 4-hectare estate.
From the beginning, vision has been to create a unique yachting event with the pleasures of fine wine, and this would not have been possible without dedicated colleagues, friends and partners.
As we celebrate 10 wonderful years, we look forward to many more filled with innovation. We aim to continue bringing together the best in yachting and wine and to share these passions with all who join us.
Cheers to 10 years of Yachting & Wine and to the many memories yet to be made! Here’s to the next chapter, together.
