Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Grilled buffalo burgers
  • "Jewish style" braised brisket
  • Flatbread pizza with fennel sausage and burrata

Made from a blend of three native Croatian grapes: Babich, Lasin, and Plavina, this bright and sprightly red begins with sweet blackberry fruit on the nose and moves into juicy red plum and red cherry flavors on the palate. Old World in style and extremely versatile, this is an ideal conversation starter for dinner parties and is a great entry point into the wines of Croatia.
