BOSNIA

A note from the winemaker: This wine is made of 90% ZILAVKA (Zhi-LAV-kuh) and 10% BENA (BEN-na), indigenous grapes from the sun-washed Herzegovina region. Similar to Chilean or South African Sauvignon Blanc, Italian Soave or based on Master Sommelier Jeanine a mix of Verdicchio and Vermentino. Light yellowish green color and crystal clear. Clean and refreshing, expressing elegance and flavors of green apples, lychee and honey, scents of immortelle, heather shrub, chamomile and verbena with a slight mineral and nutty tone. The ripe, warm flavors of apricot, star fruit and a hint of anise are coddled by juicy acidity, fine minerality and a long herbal-toned finish.

Food Pairings: Chicken marsala, chicken pakora, or pork
