Winery Bura-Mrgudic is a family estate, run by siblings Mare Mrgudic and Niko Bura, located on the Peljesac Peninsular near the Dalmatian coast in Croatia. The vineyards of this small, artisanal winery are situated on the incredibly steep Cru slopes of Postup and Dingac where Mare and Niko painstakingly tend to their Plavac Mali vines. The Yugoslav government recogzined Dignac as an appellation in 1961, the first such region in what became Croatia thirty years later. The region is famous for Plavac Mali, a grape that is the offspring of Crljenak (Zinfandel), which loves baking in the heat and greatly expresses the site on which it is grown.
The Basina Tribidrag displays a bright ruby red color and emits delicate aromas of red fruits. The palate possesses power and elegance at the same time, showcasing flavors of raspberries and spiced blackberry compote. This Tribidrag has a firm tannic structure that is balanced quite nicely by a delightful freshness that together give the wine both drinkability and depth. The Basina Tribidrag is a meat lovers best friend. Anything off the grill, smoker or roasted, especially wild game.
