STINA PLAVAC MALI MAJSTOR 750 ml

Description

Discover the essence of Croatia's Dalmatian heritage in every sip of STINA Plavac Mali Majstor, a standout red from the sun-kissed island of Brač. This boutique winery draws its name from the island's signature white stone, stina, evoking the rugged beauty of its landscape. Housed in what was once the island's cooperative winery, STINA crafts its wines from grapes grown on the southern slopes, where the indigenous Plavac Mali thrives. A close kin to Zinfandel, this varietal delivers reds that command attention with their depth and vigor.

Majstor, meaning "master" in the local tongue, proudly holds the flagship position in STINA's lineup. Sourced exclusively from the choicest vineyards on Brač's southern face, these grapes reach hand-harvested perfection, capturing the island's intense maritime sunlight and mineral-rich soils. The wine emerges as a bold force, alive with layers of lush red fruits intertwined with warm baking spices, subtle licorice whispers, and earthy undertones reminiscent of sun-baked terrain.

In the mouth, it unfolds with impressive fullness, where tannins strike a harmonious balance—polished and resolute—framing a structure that lingers with purpose. This Croatian red wine invites immediate enjoyment alongside substantial red meat preparations, its power cutting through richness with finesse. Yet, its poised character hints at graceful development in the cellar for years ahead, rewarding those with patience.

At 14% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, STINA Plavac Mali Majstor stands as a testament to Brač's winemaking soul. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking an authentic taste of Croatia's red wine tradition, it bridges everyday indulgence with collector's potential. Elevate your table or deepen your cellar with this masterful expression from the Adriatic's edge—where stone, sea, and vine converge in unforgettable harmony.
