Grape: Grasevina (Welschriesling) Region: Croatia> Kutjevo. Notes: No chemical fertilizer. Single vineyard.
Description: This exquisite white is made from Croatia’s indigenous Welschriesling varietal, Grasevina, harvested from winemaker Krauthaker’s most prized location, a single-vineyard plot called Mitrovac. The aromas are pure, clean and poignant, with depth and complexity. Ripe grapefruit and apples are supported by a counter-weighing minerality and slight undertones of noble rot. In the mouth, the wine prances in a delightfully youthful but elegant manner, providing a full, warm, vibrant viscosity and acidity, ending with pleasant minerality and flint stone.
Food Pairing: Great food wine! Swordfish/tuna steak, sushi/sashimi, oysters, veal, romesco or chimichurri sauce, caper dishes, eggplant, etc.
