Škegro Žilavka 'Krš Bijeli': You gotta love a wine with three háčeks in its name. But seriously, this wine ia from Herzegovina, where diacritical marks come with the territory (and the languages). Let’s break it down: Škegro is a family winery created in 1996 by Marco Škegro. Žilavka is the most important grape variety in Herzegovina, typically combining textural body and fresh acidity. 'Krš' means karst, a limestone-based landscape shaped and dissolved by water; 'Bijeli' means white. The wine brings together a cornucopia of fruits - citrus, melon, and stone fruits - with excellent acidity and minerality. As the back label says: “Harmonious and pleasant cup of joy. Goes well with fish. Goes perfect with friends.” What more is there to add?
