CROATIA

A note from the importer: “The Debit grape had been stigmatized by locals in the early 20th century but has tremendous potential as a Dalmatian white grape, given it is cultivated halfway between the coastlines and the mountains. This microclimate offers plenty of sunlight for natural ripeness, while also getting cool winds at night to provide acidity.

The whole point of Pomalo is to take it easy and not take things too seriously. So, nothing too technical here! But adding a still expression of Debit was essential for the Pomalo life to capture a crisp and refreshing Dalmatian white that provides the fruit of the Dalmatian sunshine and the salinity of the Adriatic sea. This wine is refreshing, fun and briny – like a handful of fruity jellies soaked in sea water, with an herbal coastal Adriatic finish.”-VINUM USA
