About this product
Bosnia's indigenous Žilavka grape from Herzegovina's karst limestone terroir — natural, unfiltered, low-sulphite. Lemon curd, crushed limestone, bitter almond, quince, and wild herbs with bracing acidity and a distinctive textured, almost saline quality. One of the Mediterranean's most compelling indigenous whites.
