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!

Yet another killer wine from the Balkans that will contribute to pushing this region toward the top. A dark, juicy Cab with nice tannins; very smooth. Am beyond pleased ! However the price point is high in comparison to other Balkan wines that are of equal quality. — 3 years ago
I love unique wines, and this definitely qualifies. Thanks to the Matthiasson’s for the recommendation. Excellent QPR @ $16. Tangy, with oranges and citrus, but also contains oak and wood elements. Very close to the Matthiasson Ribolla Gialla. Great summer wine! Very complex. — 4 years ago
