In the southern part of Croatia, in the peninsula of Pelješac, one winery is taking their love of wine *deep*—75 feet below the Mediterranean Sea’s surface. Wanting to combine his two favorite pastimes, winemaker and scuba diver Edi Bajurin built an underwater winery, with custom cages and secure clay amphora that store the bottles for a year and a half. But why underwater? For Edi, the ocean’s “silence” bestows and blesses wine with a certain richness unlike anything found above ground.

How can it possibly have a different taste, it sits in a regular glass bottle?
Put your nose on that lid and smell it. Disgusting.
Am going to go and steal his Wine. And drink it
I would literally just want this for the jar it is put in. It looks awesome!
Tako je. Hrvatska!
This is stupid the wine aged in a cellar before it’s put in a bottle and the sea is quiet tf the sea is definitely not quiet between boats and animals and currents

Gdje ste Balkanci? Ima li nas?
Someone should do a blind test versus a traditional wine.
HRVATSKA 🇭🇷🇭🇷

This business looks fishy.
GREAT IDEA! Where is it sold in the USA?
Lik širi pizdarije
so dumb
Can I re-up your video with Vietnamese, thanks
That is so Stunning!!!
😂 you are nuts, the wine would still have the exact same taste left in a cellar, the liquid is already sealed away from the air then you seal it again so no water can reach the bottle but somehow tastes better by some kind of magic
Maybe Mr. Nimbus put it there
You know what it does to the wine? Nothing
Can this be scientifically be proven or is this some hippy shit they are doing to markup the price?
That’s probably expensive lol
I can mistake this for a ancient bottle
scam.
All credit to the idea of how to fat-charge ordinary wine of the same taste and smell as if it were from a tavern, money should be taken when there are fools to pay for.
He really tried to say the wine tastes like silence…
too bad they dont ship to USA
Yeah He Uses Davy Jones Locker As A Wine Rack 🙂
