Fresh and yet nicely aromatic.
Apricots, ripe lemons, fresh herbs and rocky minerality.
In the palate this is fresh, had a bit of weight but is surprisingly crisp for 14% alc. dangerously good & drinkable.
But it’s not only a terrace glou glou.
This has some depth and a very nice tension between the fruit and rocky minerality.
Think cross between a Wachau Grüner Veltliner and Südtirol Pinot Bianco.
My first (?) Pošip - will need to find other examples, as this is quite delish and might turn out this summer’s white! — 2 days ago

A little melony funk with a subtle spice to open. Dry. Enjoyable lemon citrus finish.
Nice change of pace. Enjoyed.

Grgić Pošip, Korčula Island 2022
A Croatian white with California roots and Adriatic soul.

Crafted by Grgić Vina, the Croatian project of Napa legend Miljenko “Mike” Grgich (of Judgment of Paris fame), this 100% Pošip is sourced from steep, sun-drenched vineyards on Korčula Island, overlooking the Adriatic.

Pošip, a native Croatian grape born from a spontaneous crossing of two local varieties, delivers a crisp, dry, and complex profile. This 2022 vintage is beautifully aromatic, with notes of citrus, ripe melon, apple, and savory herbs, rounded by hints of vanilla, hazelnut, smoke, and lemon rind. There’s even a faint whisper of resin and orange blossom in the background.

On the palate, it’s voluptuous yet vibrant, a brilliant balance of brisk minerality, layered fruit, and a clean, snappy finish.

Pairing tip: It sings with seafood, think oysters, shrimp pasta, grilled white fish, or even creamy pasta with wild fennel. Also works nicely with soft cheeses.
A standout wine that’s both regional and refined, offering a true taste of Dalmatian coastal charm.
Cheers!

Tart, medium acidity, light bouquet, well rounded and balanced. Also, the app has the location wrong - this is Croatian, not from Slovenia. — 3 years ago

Zlatan Otok — Bilo Idro “Marina Cuvée Bijeli” 2023 — Dalmatia, Croatia 🇭🇷

Overview:
A coastal Croatian white blend built from indigenous Adriatic varieties including Bogdanuša, Pošip, Maraština, Prč, and Trebbiano Toscana. Crafted as a fresh, mineral-driven cuvée, this wine captures maritime salinity and sunlit vibrancy, delivering pure drinkability with unmistakable seaside character.

Aromas & Flavors:
Bright citrus, green apple, subtle tropical hints, white peach, saline minerality, and delicate herbal lift.

Mouthfeel:
Light-bodied, crisp, and ultra-refreshing with vibrant acidity and a clean, mouthwatering finish. The texture is sleek and linear, emphasizing freshness and energy rather than weight or oak influence.

Food Pairings:
Oysters, mussels, grilled shrimp, calamari, white fish, Mediterranean salads, goat cheese, light pasta with olive oil and herbs.

Personal Pick:
This is one of my ultimate casual sippers — the kind of bottle I can open without ceremony and happily pour all afternoon. It’s saline, crisp, and dangerously easy to drink. A wine that doesn’t try to impress — it just makes you smile.

Verdict:
A vibrant, coastal white delivering purity, minerality, and everyday joy. Ideal for warm weather, seafood tables, and anyone who loves clean, refreshing whites with personality.

🍷 Did You Know?:
Dalmatian island vineyards sit close to the Adriatic Sea, where intense sunlight and cooling sea breezes help preserve acidity and impart a distinctive saline character to local white blends. — 2 years ago
