Vilinka Description
Discover the allure of Herzegovina with Vilinka Cellars Blatina Dry Red, an exceptional introduction to the Blatina grape. This captivating red showcases a rich ruby color, underlined by thin legs, making it as visually appealing as it is flavorful. With a nose of blackberry and dark cherry harmoniously blended with a whisper of light oak, it invites you in for the first sip.
On the palate, expect a medium-bodied delight featuring an orchestra of dark fruit flavors, enhanced by firm tannins and a streak of lively acidity that screams for a food pairing. Its unique blend captures the mineral richness of Herzegovina’s terroir, offering an elegant and juicy profile punctuated by notes of fresh plums, violets, and a forest-floor earthiness, culminating in a slightly salty, bitter finish.
Indulge in a gastronomic adventure by pairing this wine with dishes that highlight its savory and acidic nature. Ideal with grilled meats like lamb or beef, Mediterranean vegetable dishes, or robust pastas with tomato-based sauces, Vilinka Cellars Blatina ensures each bite is a flavorful journey

Opens gradually on the nose with soft aromas of black currant and elderberry and a hint of licorice. The palate reveals full, fresh notes of red and black currant, traces of dried figs, roasted almonds, ripe plums, and chocolate with an undertone of minerality and a savory dash of salt.
