The Croatian wine at Biden’s inauguration
Location: Orebic Dingac, Croatia
A Croatian red wine produced by a family
that’s been in the business for 12 generations
was served at inauguration day
They hope the presidential spotlight will be a boon
to the country's small wine industry
(SOUNDBITE) (Croatian) DIRECTOR OF THE BENMOSCHE FAMILY WINERY, BORIS MRGUDIC, SAYING:
"This news will certainly contribute to the promotion of the Croatian wines which is very important as Croatia is a small wine producer, very specific, and still not very competitive on the global markets. We have been present in the global market for many years now and we have the experience, but I can say that quality is the most important. If the quality is good, the market will recognize that sooner or later."
