About the winery: The Matuško family has a rich tradition in viticulture. In 1997 they first started producing wine for the market in a small winery in Potomje. This required a serious approach to grape and wine production as traditional values and principles had to be preserved. Thanks to family tradition, but also to family upbringing, this was the beginning of the dizzying rise of Matuško wine. Combining family culture with personality, especially charm and playfulness, they have been able to put a unique stamp on the wines, which the market has recognized over the years. Every year, this winery attracts thousands of tourists who come to visit the impressive wine cellars.
Location: This wine house is located in Potomje, South Dalmatia. The grapes for this wine are sourced from the wider area in Dalmatia. This region has a backdrop of rugged mountains that mainly consist of dolomite and limestone.
Vinification: After fermentation, this wine is aged for 2 years in oak barrels. Depending on the harvest, it is sometimes cultivated for longer than a year in barrels, one year being the minimum. High in ripeness and concentrated fruity aromas, this is a very good representative of an old-fashioned luscious Plavac Mali.
Pairing
A wine to enjoy on its own. We recommend a cheese board of hard salty cheeses, cured meats such as perscuito or Italian salame. Goes well with Croatian Paški Cheese or Kulen (dried Croatian sausage).
