Nobilo, Albi Auri, Lumbarda, Dalmatia, Croatia, 2020

This ripe approach to Grk, Albi Auri, from Nobilo, reaches a full 15%; the name means ‘white gold’ in the local dialect. It's a decadent wine with a peach ring, candies, ripe nectarines, and honeyed goodness across the aromatic profile. The palate shows similarly: a toasted hazelnut depth opens to ripe peach and honeyed poached apricot. Delicious and intensely ripe, it's a more opulent take on the variety but certainly shows its range.
