Enjingi Zweigelt, 2012

CERTIFIED ORGANIC, NATURAL WINE A Zweigelt like you have never, ever had before! Normally a varietal that is associated with Austria, Enjingi's Zweigelt is breathtakingly unique and top world-class quality. In our field of work, these types of wines are what make everything worth it! A true wine for the ages! The Zweigelt vine is a vigorous one and yield control is crucial to produce high-quality wine -- which is Enjingi's specialty! Don't let the "Late Harvest" fool you in the name. Enjingi Late Harvest Zweigelt is a DRY Zweigelt that is ruby-red in color and has incredible elegance, structure, and lusciousness on the palate that you normally don't expect from the Zweigelt grape. A beautifully rich, unique, and complex palate of dried and ripe currants, aromatic herbs, bayleaf, with just a touch of tree bark.

Kozlovic Malvasia, 2019

SUSTAINABLE FARMING Gianfranco Kozlović is the largest private producer of Malvasia in Istria, and a vocal crusader for quality. His vineyards dot the hillsides of northern Istria, where his modern winery is located. This lemon-colored dry wine offers hay, white peach, apple and almond on the nose. It is medium-bodied, unoaked, with fresh acidity and slight mineral and herb on the palate. Serve chilled with summer seafood, creamy risotto with musrooms, grilled vegetables, and pasta with shellfish and/or clams.

Kozlovic Teran, 2019

SUSTAINABLE FARMING A beautiful, vibrant, fun, lively expression of the varietal! Unlike most Refoscos from Italy, that tend to be sharp and a bit more aggressive with their high acidity, this Croatian Teran from Kozlović has juicy and friendly acidity and such an inviting fruit component that you won't know if you should pair this wine with a meal, or just have it by itself! The juicy acidity is not all you get with this wine, though. After the wine opens up a bit the raspberry fruit will develop into a inviting herbaceous, mineral component. Its great tannin structure and wonderful inky-ness makes you forget that you're even drinking a grape that belongs to the Refosco family. Pair with cured, smoked meats, rabbit, venison, pizza, roasts, grilled panini sandwiches and red meats.

Krauthaker Mitrovac Grasevina, 2019

SUSTAINABLE FARMING From Krauthaker’s most prized location, a singlevineyard plot called Mitrovac. A wine that many Grüner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Slyvaner, and Chenin Blanc drinkers would appreciate and enjoy. Aromatic, but not reductive, the wine’s aromas are pure, clean and poignant, but with depth and complexity. Ripe grapefruit and apples are supported by a counterweighing minerality and slight undertones of noble rot, which both follow through on the palate. In the mouth, the wine prances in a delightfully youthful but elegant manner, providing full, warm, creamy, vibrant, delicious viscosity and acidity, with pleasantly mild bitterness which is typical of the grape variety. Accompany with casseroles, cooked meat, beef stews, whole roasted white/blue fish, sushi/sashimi galore, braised rack of pork, and – one of our favorites – mussels made in white wine, garlic and parsley sauce

Mare Mrgudic Postup, 2014

Mare wine comes from the controlled region of Postup located in Southern Dalmatia. Mare Mrgudic and her brother Niko Bura have jointly created this complex and powerful Plavac Mali wine.

Marica Mrgudic Plavac Mali, 2018

Marica Plavac Mali was fermented without added yeasts, partially aged in oak barrels for 6 months and then bottled without filtering. Enjoy with lamb, beef and aged cheeses

Plavina, 2017

SUSTAINABLE FARMING Plavina is without a doubt Croatia’s most underrated coastal red grape! Oftentimes in the shadows of better-known varietals Plavac Mali and Babić, Plavina certainly has its own place and offers completely different characteristics from other Croatian coastal reds. Plavina is a bit fresher, softer, brighter, more restrained, and livelier, so much so that one would never guess that it comes from a warmer climate on the rocky soils located right in front of the pristine Adriatic Sea! With all grapes hand-picked, and the resulting wine only coarsely filtered, Piližota’s Plavina has really expressed its authentic Dalmatian characteristics: lively acidity, fresh red berries and fruit, lower alcohol that isn’t overpowering, a solid tannin structure, with a hint of chocolate and constant undertones of Dalmatian earthiness.

Roxanich Porco Rosso, 2011

Another marvelous example of what wine is by wine-guru Mladen Rožanić! Much like his other wines, Porco Rosso wins you over completely just on the nose! Wonderfully rustic, lean, bright, yet juicy, funky, and spicy! In the glass, you feel that special "terra rossa" soil of Istria, which is bursting with minerals and iron. It is unfiltered so you will see some cloudiness accompanied by some of that lovable barnyard, natural wine "elegance." However, the juiciness that you get from its lively character universally wins over all sorts of palates. A completely unpretentious wine that is suppose to make people smile and be happy -- hence the label!

Skaramica Dingac Plavac Mali, 2017

PRACTICING ORGANIC, NATIVE YEASTS Dingač wine is made from the indigenous Plavac Mali grape variety grown in a very small and protected appellation known as Dingač, which is located on the steep southern slopes of the Pelješac Peninsula.

Skaramuca Plavac, 2018

Skaramuca family vineyards are located on the dramatic slopes of Dingac and Postup as well as in the valley on Peljesac Peninsula. Grapes in this wine come from the cooler inland locations with richer soil that produces friengly and inviting plavac.
