A Quick Trip to Croatia

After needing an inexpensive white wine to open after four tremendous bottles, I casted a nervous eye on the Krizevci, Grasevina, 2006. I have not had much Croatian wine, but I tend to find the whites better than the reds. I love Croatian Zinfindel, but they do not stand a chance against the Zinfindel's of California. Grasevina is the Croatian wine for Zinfindel, but this wine is not as heavy as a Riesling from Grrmany or Washington State. Very light in color and acidity it will be hard to not like this wine.

Even though I was dissapointed that this wasn't a Greek wine as you promised, after a couple of glasses of this, it all looked Greek to me.

Once you go Croatian, you never go back.
