Winemaker Notes: 

"Our Plavac Malis is a hearty, robust wine with concentrated aromas of plum and black cherry with earthy notes on the palate.  Traditionally served with roasted lamb, its bold flavors are also perfect with grilled steak, rich pasta dishes and aged cheeses. 

When Mike Grgich came to the Napa Valley in 1958 to make wine, he noticed a remarkable resemblance between the Zinfandel and Plavac Mali of his native Croatia. Some 35 years later, Mike worked with scientists at University of California, Davis, to prove that Zinfandel was actually Crljenak Kaštelanski, a grape native to Croatia and parent of Plavac Mali. We grew our Plavac Mali (“little blue” in Croatian, referring to its small, bluish grapes) in the prestigious Dingač appellation, a small, steep area of vineyards perched above the Adriatic Sea on the south-facing slopes of the mountainous Pelješac Peninsula."  

About the Producer: 

"Grgić Vina was established in 1996 by legendary Napa Valley winemaker, Croatian-born Miljenko “Mike” Grgich and his daughter, Violet Grgich.  Mike started the winery to produce the finest wines from native Dalmatian grapes and concentrates on crafting Croatia’s very best varietals: Plavac Mali and Pošip."
