Description: Produced by the Bibich Winery in Skradin, Croatia just across the Adriatic Sea from Italy, this wine offers an eclectic blend of 3 grapes native to Croatia’s sun-drenched Northern Dalmatian coast. The grape Plavina is a relative of Zinfandel. It is aged for 1 year in American oak. It is velvety smooth with lively acid and aromas of dark fruit, spices, and black pepper. Many people liken its flavor to Zinfandel, though that’s up for debate.

Food pairing: Red Meat, Tuna, and Hard Cheese.
