FROM VINUM:

THE WINE: Crazy orange mutation of a familiar red grape. The grapes Plavac mali sivi are the result of spontaneous mutations of the standard genotype Plavac mali grapes. The bunches of grapes are gray and give a full-bodied wine with pronounced fruity aromas. Over the past 3 years the Bura family has separated a small plot of this recently discovered mutation. It is the first sustainable vineyards of this varietal in the world. Organically farmed and manually harvested.

Fermented naturally in open vats with four days of skin contact; 6 months in neutral oak barrels; 12 months in bottle.

THE PRODUCER: Located on the steep 45 degree Southern slopes of Pelješac Peninsula known for its big reds, Bura vineyards produce the most unique, delicious and prestigious wine to ever come out of the Dalmatian Coast. As much as there is talk about all the different wineries and winemakers in Croatia, no other winemaker stands out more than Niko Bura and his sacred Bura Dingač. Niko Bura’s vineyards are fully organic and are the truest expression of the microclimate and land of Croatia’s southern Dalmatian coast. The Bura family has one of the longest traditions of winemaking in Dingač and Croatia as a whole, spanning over sixteen generations -- since the year 1410!
