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!

Deliciously White out of 100% Posip Grape, an ancient indigenous Croatian varietal that has its origins from the Korčula island, located in the south of Hvar Island as well.
Pure expression of ripe apricot on both nose and palate, it has a great tension and weight on the mouth with distinctive layers of baked stony fruits. Long but not over lingering finish with a bit of texture.
This wine style will take you to the next level when paired with classic mediterranean food, and beside the traditional grilled cheese, it can be paired with some Dalmatian pršut (prosciutto), and aged cheeses as well.

Medium ruby color, concentrated black cherry and ripe plum aroma, medium sweet entry, but getting drier afterwards. Good balance on the palate. Tannin medium plus, but the texture is polished. It kinda feels like a blend between Rhône Grenache and Puglia Primotivo. — 3 years ago

Smells like a wet dog…should be chilled but also give it a few minutes to open up. Very tart but bone dry — 4 years ago

2020 vintage.
The blend is Posip, Vuguva and a bit of Chardonnay from Dalmatia, Croatia.
Brilliant, shiny, green and gold.
Herbal, citrus and guava on the nose.
Figs, green apple and unripe Bosc pears.
Round mouth feel with medium acidity on the finish.
This is definitely a food wine.
I would grill whole Branzino or octopus.
Chicken roasted with Dijon mustard, garlic, lemon and parsley would shine with this wine. — 8 months ago

The cherry and fig notes explode at first smell and taste, it was hard for me to believe that this was a grape varietal and not a cherry-based wine! Very enjoyable with smoked meats and cheeses - I recommend pairing it with traditional Bosnian suho meso (smoked beef). — 4 years ago
