About
Niko Karaman
Niko Karaman, oenologist and winery owner, comes from a family with a rich tradition in viticulture and winemaking. At the end of the Homeland War, he saved the Dubrovnik malvasia variety from extinction, spreading its value and quality throughout the vineyards of Konavle. From three healthy vines he discovered, he established his first vineyard dedicated to malvasia.
He invited friends and professors from the Faculty of Agriculture in Zagreb – Dr. Edi Maletić, Dr. Ivan Pejić, Dr. Jasminka Karoglan Kontić, and Dr. Nikola Mirošević – to Konavle to work with the Dubrovnik State Archives on the project of revitalizing and protecting this noble variety.
