Discover the grape variety: Posip

A very old grape variety grown in Croatia, on the island of Korcula in southern Dalmatia. It is said to be the result of a natural cross between two Croatian grape varieties, zlatarica blatska and bratkovina. It should not be confused with furmint, which has the synonym posip. Today, Posip can be found throughout Croatia and neighbouring countries... in France it is almost unknown, yet it seems interesting in the production of different/original white wines to discover.
