Intriguing on the nose with aromas of hazelnuts and smoke veiled in orange flowers, citrus rind and resin, this full-bodied white from the Pošip grape is deliciously multifaceted. Dry and savory on the palate, it’s flecked with hints of fruit and spice—spiced poached pears and dried orange peels—and a lingering finish that ends on a rich nut skin and nut oil note.

Fresh and fragrant, this offers notes of apple, vanilla spice and lemon rind on the nose and palate. The palate of this Croatian white feels surprisingly voluptuous. Dry in style, with penetrating fruit flavors, this has lavish minerality on the midpalate that lends the finish a brisk, crisp feel.

Waxy and floral on the nose with hints of zesty orange peel, this dry, full bodied white is richly concentrated with tangerine, lime and fresh apple flavors. It’s bold at 13.6% abv, but maintains a crisp, citrus pith astringency and orange blossom elegance to the finish.
