Gimblett Gravels The Gimblett Merlot Blend 2011

You can tell by the nose how the wine will be..

Focused fruit wrapped in eucalyptus wafts.
The Aroma matches the beginning of the Wines flavors, medium bodied, gravel, Tobacco, blackberry, cherry stem, (You tie enough of them, you get the taste) black pepper - which seems to be a theme for this winery- and cara cara orange acidity, with a firm tannic finish.
Classy wine.

Grk 2017

Grk is a fascinating grape. The vines need intervention of another grape varietal to pollinate, as all the Grk plants are female. The vineyard is planted to mixed rows of red and white grapes.
Abundant floral and citrus aromas bound from the glass. On the tongue the wine is very dry with stone, gentle herb, and pith flavors. Definitely food friendly. I’m certain this is a wine many vintners can get wrong, but I am pleased with this wine.

Curious where you tried it? I’ve been unable to find this wine anywhere other than the vineyard itself.

@Greg Viola, the wine came from the vineyard in carry-on luggage.

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

Croatian white hit all the right notes: not effusive on nose, reserved notes of orchard fruit, citrus, herbs, mint, stones & minerals, some salinity, but on the palate everything came together as it had this soft spot in the middle wrapped in vibrant acidity. Delightful texture - it helped that we paired with a briny smoked charcuterie plate. Hit or miss with Croatia, but this was a hit! — 2 years ago

Plavac Mali Rosé

Easily the best-balanced dry rose we’ve had in Croatia. From the winery in Lumbarda on Korcula island, about 15 USD. Nothing wrong with this. :)

Rukatac 2020

Not an obvious choice, a Rukatac from Korčula. But a v. nice one.
V. Mediterranean nose with white peach, melon and dried herbs. A lot of them. Plus a salty whiff. Very fresh.
On the palate this shows medium body and a stony, salty backbone. Juicy acidity, yellow fruits, nice balance & flow. At 12.5% alc this is a chilled delight and very food friendly.
A v. nice discovery!
