The reputation — the story that sells at the table

Mike Grgich — the Croatian-born winemaker who made the 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay that won the Judgment of Paris — returned to his homeland to produce Plavac Mali and Posip of world-class quality from family vineyards on the Peljesac peninsula.

Practice
Founded in 1996 by legendary Napa Valley winemaker Miljenko 'Mike' Grgich upon his return to native Croatia, Grgić Vina established itself on the Pelješac Peninsula—less than 50 kilometers from Grgich's birthplace—to honor his family's generations of viticultural heritage. Positioned above the Adriatic on terrain shaped by Mediterranean climate and limestone-dolomite soils, the winery became an expression of Grgich's conviction that terroir and tradition could flourish beyond California's borders.
