CLASSIC GRASEVINA 2016 Croatia |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
ILOK CELLARS |
Forward bright medium yellow colour. Attractive, slightly floral, fresh, ripe, peachy-apple nose with some slight mineral notes. Fairly dry, medium to medium-light bodied, spicy, faintly honeyed, ripe melon-apple puree flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, yellow grapefruit-tinged finish. This tasty, aromatic, ready-to-drink 100% Grasvina is the #1 variety in Croatia. It has a modest 12% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L1721701 on the back label along with a screwcap closure. TONY ASPLER / 88.5-points / BEST BUY - Grassy, minerally, grapefruit nose; medium-bodied, dry, Sauvignon-like; well-balanced with a fresh citrus finish. A very well-priced, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser! |

TASTING NOTE: This offers suggestions of green herbs, apple, citrus and mineral on the nose. Grapefruit citrus tones on the palate with an underpinning mineral note. A good pairing for pork chops, seafood or a charcuterie plate. (Vintages panel, March 2017) |
