Clear golden color. The first nose is dominated by aromas of fresh ripe apricot and mango. Secondary aromas on the nose are lemon and lime (even lemon zest), honey, and dry figs. The palate is complex and layered with aromas of ripe fruit, peaches, apricot, and some pineapple. Finnish is very long, with a specific bitter-sweet aftertaste.

Nature was more than kind to us: birthplaces of our wines offer outstanding conditions for viticulture, at the same time being one of the most beautiful places on Earth. We are obliged to give back through winemaking, constant learning, and searching for perfection.

Pošip is a specific indigenous variety, very aromatic and does not profit from ‘spicing up’. It is fermented and matured in big concrete tanks for 6 months to preserve its freshness, and allow it to develop its own specific aromas.

This Croatian white is made from the indigenous Posip grape. It is pale straw in color with aromas of lemon zest, river rock, mandarin orange and lemon grass with just a whiff of dried Mediterranean herbs. It is soft on entry but very full-bodied in the mouth with flavors of vanilla, lemon curd and grapefruit. It is well balanced with nice minerality and a touch of salinity on the finish. -J.J.
