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! — a year ago

Vino Milas

Merlot

This is one of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s pricier bottles. But it is also a concrete example of the potential that this country has around the production of excellent wine. Full bodied; cherries, plums and blackberries. Drinks great right off the pop. This one gives Nuic’s Trnjak a run for its money to stand out as the country’s best quality red… — a year 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.

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 elegance. 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? Revisited in July 2023. Still excellent! — a year ago
