Natalie's Score: 88/100

Peppery with black fruit aromas and a smooth, seductive, full-bodied texture. A great Croatian red wine for BBQs and potluck gatherings. Plavac Mali is a native Croatian grape (pronounced PLAH-vahts MAH-lee), and the leading black grape grown on the sunlit Dalmatian Coast on the Adriatic Sea. Plava means blue and Mali mean small, which aptly describes the grapes for this wine which are packed with flavour as a result. Try it with meat lovers' pizza too ... tonight!

Plavac Mali food pairings: grilled chicken with tomato and olives, roasted venison.

This robust red wine from the Croatian Dalmatian Coast is related to the Zinfandel grape according to vine genetic studies. Big, delicious and bursting with brambleberry, mulberry, and plums. - Community Wine Reviews
