The Enology Laboratory has been accredited in accordance with the HRN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard for the physico-chemical analyses of must, wine, and fruit wine by the Croatian Accreditation Agency continuously since 2009. Accreditation confirms that operations and methods comply with the legal regulations of the Republic of Croatia and the European Union, and ensures the national and international validity of the issued test reports.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has designated the Enology Laboratory as an official laboratory for performing physico-chemical analyses of must, wine, and fruit wine, based on the methods outlined in the accreditation certificate.
The laboratory uses more than 30 physico-chemical methods in its work, 14 of which are accredited according to the HRN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard. It continuously updates existing methods and develops new ones, introduces modern laboratory equipment and instruments, and keeps up with changes in winemaking legislation.
The laboratory staff are continuously trained to ensure faster and more accurate analyses and to minimize the possibility of error. Since 2005, the laboratory has participated monthly in international inter-laboratory comparisons organized by BIPEA, confirming the accuracy and precision of its physico-chemical methods.
The laboratory offers services for determining physico-chemical parameters in must, wine, fruit wine, vinegar (wine and fruit), and spirits. It also provides consulting services related to grape processing and wine production.
