100% Plavac Mali
Middle and South Dalmatia, Srednja, Croatia
Saints Hills Black is the wine which reflects the nature of a true Dalmatian: sun makes him playful, endless like sea and harmonious as a song. It's a postcard from our Dalmatian vineyards.
ABOUT THE WINERY
Croatia, at the heart of Europe, at the heart of the Mediterranean. Adriatic sea and our Saints Hills’ vineyards are but a stone’s throw away from Dubrovnik, and two from Diocletian’s Palace in Split and Vespasian’s Amphitheater in Pula. Here we celebrate the sea and sun, Dalmatia and Istria, Bora and Scirocco, stone and vine. And through this little window in our house, amid the Dingač vineyards, you can see the millennial path of the holy liquid wine, from the Greek amphorae that carried it through the canal, to the wooden trabaccoli that carried it to Split. Following a path on both sides of the Pelješac peninsula, all the way to Istria, we outlined in search of perfection.
This Croatian Plavac Mali is dark cherry garnet in color. It has aromas of bramble, forest floor, red plum and a whiff of Jalapeño pepper. It is very nicely balanced and soft on entry into the mouth with flavors of cherry vanilla, black raspberry and cassis. The tannins are smooth and the finish is elegant and persistent.
