750 mL
Item # 19647

The Plavac Mali red grape variety can produce a variety of styles of wine depending on the way the wine was aged. This, however, is a bottling to be consumed in its youth for all its vibrant fruit aromas. Very aromatic and dry.

Staff Pick Notes

There are a number of talking points about this wine that are quite intriguing. Much could be made about Plavac Mali being related to Primitivo & Zinfandel or island like peninsula that this wine hails from. For me the most important thing is that this wine from Croatia is delicious. Bura's Plavac "Fresh" manages to be fruit forward with out being sweet and rich without being heavy. This unoaked style of red wine allows the fruit and earth notes to abound. I enjoyed this with a slight chill with spicy roasted vegetables but the Plavac is very versatile food wise and otherwise.
