Discover the grape variety: Zlatarica Vrgorska
Lively, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour and a lean, crisp palate; signature aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white flowers and Dalmatian herbal notes. Refreshing style, drink young. Preserved for its heritage value, used in small-batch artisan Croatian cuvées around Vrgorac in inland Dalmatia. Very rare indigenous Croatian white grape, studied for its Adriatic genetic interest.
