Bura Winery ‘Plavac Bura’ Red 2023

$22.00

Location: Croatia 

Winemaker: Niko Bura

Grapes: Plavac Mali

All organic vineyards right on the Dalmatian Coast in Croatia. Niko Bura is making really exciting wines in the long-standing tradition of the Bura family—they’ve been recorded here since 1410. Rukatac, also known as Maraština, grows on red soil about 300m above sea level; Niko hand-harvests all the fruit, ferments with native yeasts with about 7 days of skin contact. This tastes like stones warmed in hot summer sun, with just enough bitter-orange tannin and saline freshness. Swordfish and scallop wine.
