Kontrada Wines and Fine Food
About
Found on Malta, Kontrada Wines and Fine Food sits on Triq il-Wied Hal-Balzan in Balzan, BZN 1407, Malta, a wine shop on the island's central grid. Balzan lies inland, so the venue is reachable from Valletta, Sliema, St. Julian's, Paceville, Birgu (Vittoriosa), Mdina, Rabat and Mosta without crossing the whole island. That central position makes it a practical stop for anyone moving between the harbour towns and the old capital.
The shop deals in wine and fine food, and its reputation rests on a 5 out of 5 average from 18 reviews, a small but flawless record. Valletta, Sliema, St. Julian's, Paceville, Birgu (Vittoriosa), Mdina, Rabat and Mosta all sit within reach, so a visit fits into most island itineraries. The website at http://www.kontradamerchants.com/ carries the shop's details for anyone planning ahead.
Opening hours are published on the shop's own site, which is the place to confirm times before setting out. The website at http://www.kontradamerchants.com/ gives a direct line to the business. Balzan's position means the shop can be paired with a trip to Mdina or Rabat, both a short drive away.
Maltese and English are both official languages, and Maltese is a Semitic language written in the Latin alphabet, so English works for most conversations. Village festas honour patron saints with band marches, processions and fireworks, which can fill summer weekends with noise and colour. The swimming season runs from May to October, and summer afternoons often bring the hot, humid scirocco wind, so mornings suit errands better.
