White Blend "Bilo Idro Marina Cuvée", Zlatan Otok, Croatia, 2023

Bilo Idro is the name of Zlatan Otok’s breathtaking marina-side restaurant and wine bar, in the little fishing village on the island of Hvar, Sveta Nedilja. The Marina Cuvee is a fresh, crisp and mineral driven white that is meant to capture the carefree Dalmatian drinking style of sitting dockside at Bilo Idro and enjoying seafood while watching the crystalline Adriatic over the stones. Crisp, refreshing and an undeniably Dalmatian mineral finish.

Enjoy with raw bar, fresh salads, or whatever works, just sipping while laying out near any beautiful body of water.

Blend of indigenous varietals, varies depending on vintage (usually Bogdanuša, Pošip, Maraština, Prč, Trebbiano Toscana)
