Grgic Pošip 2018

Mention the Adriatic, and Pošip – Croatia's iconic white grape – comes to mind. Put this varietal in the hands of Croatia’s most iconic winemaker Miljenko “Mike” Grgich, now 97, and you’ll find a penetrating slice of the Mediterranean through notes of citrus, almonds, ripe peaches and savoury minerality that whisks you to the sea.

Grgich made his name in California when his 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay won the Judgment of Paris in 1976, and he co-founded Grgich Hills in California and this family winery in 1996 on Pelješac. As rightly noted by the distributors, this wine pairs well with white fish, lightly spiced Thai BBQ chicken, and a Game of Thrones marathon. $69 from adriaticpantry.com
