Minimum intervention, maximum result

Wine lovers know that all too well, the depth behind a good glass of wine. The aromas, structure, balance and that fineness of a long aftertaste.

What I mention here is the result of vinification processes, which a winemaker tries to calibrate year after year to achieve the maximum result. Would the term 'minimal interventionist' be another word for a Mediterranean senior, a bon vivant, who works on principle according to old habits without the intervention of advanced equipment? No, not according to winemaker Vedran Kiridžija.

Call it an act of God or simply lucky that his 30 year old vines grow on a perfect area in Croatia (PDO Dingač or appellation in Dalmatia) and under the most ideal weather conditions produce a high quality product . Minimal intervention is understanding how to adequately, in the right approach and respect to nature, guide the development of the vineyard, in fact as a therapist would do. The result is a wine that is one of Croatia's top knoch.

Winemaker Kiridžija shows his Dingač from 2003, a Croatian concept.

Verdran Kiridzija produces 4000 liters of wine per year from exclusively the indigenous Plavac Mali grape. His red Dingač is full, powerful, with a good balance of acidity and medium tannins. Aromas of dark fruit, cherry, figs and strawberry jam. Also present but not dominant, the pleasant aroma of carob, Mediterranean herbs and wood. Kiridžija is considered one of the best winemakers in Croatia, his wines are available at Adriavino.
