Winery Čitluk Hercegovacki Mostar Blatina – 2007 – 9.0 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

The Blatina grape is a very interesting grape; needs to be planted next to other wine varietals otherwise (as this is a female flowering vine) will never develop into berries.  This beautiful signature of black cherry, chocolate dust, Oaxacan simmering. scent of Thyme, rose garden, rose petal and earth.  Low alcohol – 12% and is a perfect wine to pair with Indian and Mexican foods and certainly enjoyable to drink by itself.

Winery Čitluk Mostar Zilavka – 2007 – 8.9 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

A superbly low alcohol wine; perfect for warm weather and I could see this as a year round white wine.  I could picture this wine with a bowl of clam chowder.  This wine is 85% Zilavka and 15% Krkosija.
This wine gives notes of green melon, lime, nutmeg and white pepper; a brilliant gold color. These varietals are heritage grapes in a region producing wine for a long time.  This wine is not just a curiosity but a serious wine to enjoy.
