The wine region of Kutjevo
World capital of Graševina in Croatian Slavonia (Požega-Slavonia), ~800 ha on clay hills, cool continental climate. Country's oldest cellar built by Cistercians in 1232. Signature Graševina as white king (22% of national vineyard): taut and slightly aromatic with notes of green apple, citrus, pear, almond, white flowers and honeyed touch, dry thirst-quenching palate. Floral Traminac, ample Chardonnay.
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
