Croatia
A hit from this year's Van Intl Wine Festival and another grape for the #WineCenturyClub. A little Croatian Plavac Mali - or should I say a rather big Plavac Mali? Became more and more enjoyable as it opened up.

My inability to pronounce anything on this bottle doesn't make it any less interesting. Waves of tannin and lots of rich fruit. This is one to watch for.

Feb 6th, 2015Now 12 years after the vintage... We're enjoying this on our seventh anniversary remembering several plavac mali wines back on our honeymoon in Croatia... On the nose, this is raspberry liqueur, blackberry, and allspice... On the palate, this is blackberry, black raspberry, cinnamon, allspice... It's the dusty tannins that prevail here making this a chewy glass of wine... A medium finish, but the flavors on the finish are satisfying.

Disappointed. Not as good as we remembered.
