Pallet notes peach, citrus fruit, green apple and fresh herbs. Nice mineral note on the finish. Bracing acidity and quite fresh tasting. Very easy to drink. — 2 years ago

Trnjak Illyrian Traditional Red Blend 2019

Interesting varietal that is indigenous to Bosnia-Herzegovina. Dark garnet color. Lovely aromas and flavors of raspberry, cherry, plums, and currants with notes of herbs, vanilla, cloves and cinnamon. The pallet is especially loaded with fruit. Full bodied and bold, but there is also an elegant quality. The combination of herbal and baking spice notes make this a very unique wine. Perfectly balanced. Still a baby but so easy to drink. Who knew? Thank you for sharing this bottle, Ron B! Revisited in July 2023. Still excellent! Revisited again in January and June 2025. At peak! — 3 years ago

Con Animo Trnjak 2016

I believe this may be the finest Trnjak in the neighborhood. Possibly even edging out Nuic and Teuta. Very nice medium bodied red. For the price point - it’s a big winner — 5 years ago

Ljubuški Pošip

Prekrasan miris pokosenog sijena i livadskog cvijeca, koji budi veselost poput leprsave rasplesane dugokose plavuše sa cvjetnim vjencom u kosi.
U ustima se rastapa svjezina koja osvjezava poput oluje i navlaci osmjeh na lice.
Za preporuku svima koji zele lagano i opusteno uzivati u vinu.

Emporia 2019

Primarily the unique Blatina (Interesting grape-85%) with some Vranec (10%) and Alicante Bouchet (5%) blended in. Deep ruby color. Aromas of sour red fruits (cranberries and pomegranates), earth, dried flowers and herbs. Pallet is full of sour cherry and raspberry flavors along with that earthy component. No oak. Long finish. Extremely smooth tannins. Enough acidity to maintain balance. Interesting and delicious! Thank You Ron B! — 3 years ago

Čitluk

Mostar Zilavka

2017 vintage. Surprisingly good and lacking any of the oxidation that sadly plagues whites from this part of the globe. Chamomile and orchard fruits on the nose, also on the palate. Perfectly ripe pear, yellow and green apples, white nectarine, lime flesh, a little mineral phenolic bitterness, dandelion and chamomile flower, nondescript light herbal note. — 5 years ago

Barrique Blatina 2013

Probably the best blatina I‘ve tried so far. A masterpiece made of blatina grapes. Oaked for two years, dark ruby colour, black fruits with intense vanilla flavour, concentrated, dense, powerful, masculine, but still rather balanced. Very long aftertaste. — 7 years ago

Blatina 2015

Wine is a medium garnet, with a medium intensity on the nose. Aromas of black currants, black plum, Black cherry, and anise. On the palate there is an intense flavor that matches the nose, but some earthy notes such as the forest floor. medium to Low tannins that are very well integrated. A long and pleasant finish. The wine is balanced, with very unique, identifiable flavors. There could be a little more complexity though. Overall, a very good, almost outstanding wine! — 3 years ago
