Repulsive. Sorry.

Very fine and interesting episode. QOTD: None, but I have in my cellar Mavrud, from Bulgaria. Is that wine any good?

I HAVE enjoyed some dessert style wines of Moldova made from grapes such as Lydia, Isabella, and even cabernet.

QOTD: It was Croatian, as a matter of fact: a Dingac (I believe Zinfandel as well) red from a few vintages ago. Had it at a Croation restaurant in Zara, Croatia and I can tell you it rivals many well known “Western” wines.

Awesome Show, watch on Ustream as well! ROcked it Out Gary!

QOTD…. none

Alas, none

Wow, Croatian wines, I had no idea. QOTD: Never had one.

been to croatia a few times! stunningly gorgeous country. the reds are just as massive as the scenery!

you’ve got to check it out!

I don’t know how, but I left my comment for this episode on #554. Damn. Anyway, great episode. And the best Eastern European wine I ever had was a recommendation from WLTV, the 2000 Chateau Henye Tojaki Aszueszencia(tough to type correctly with a buzz). Anyway, had it with my in-laws. The stuff rocked.

best i’ve ever had was from the alazanis valley in the republic of georgia. it was a 2003 red table wine (saperavi grapes). tons of fruit, very soft. honey, light oak. similar to your description of the croatian red.

i found it being currently imported by dozortsev and sons in brooklyn, they even sell them in old-timey clay bottles

Well, I’ve had a couple, Bibich Reserva was a blend of Plavic relatives. I’ve also had the Movia blanc, 95, i think, which one a giant lemon bomb, interesting, but didn’t kill it.

QOTD: None.

I knew right from the face that the last wine was going to get a high score.

Wow. My girlfriend and I are headed to Croatia in January, and will be staying in Hvar. PUMPED!

QOTD – have tried a few from my brother-in-law, who is from Belgrade, but my favorite was a Hungarian red that I had with dinner in Budapest.

None

none. Using The Google right now to correct that.

I’ve had some okay Moravian wines from the Czech Republic.

I’m gonna try to find this shiz. For real!

My wife is from Croatia and have been there many times myself and tasted many of their wines. To be honest, some of the BEST wines I have ever had have been their wines… I am not kidding! My only complaint is the availability of it here in the US.

If you like the Zlatan, then you have to try Bura. Another Plavac Mali in the $60 range, absolutely amazing

Triumph, a serbian white blend of SB, Dijon-clone Chard and Welchriesling.
Nice acid, bright fruit and clean. Around 10 bones.

Yo G, me head is still spinning, tryin’ to follow Ya around that table…
Croatian Vino, who woulda thunk it…….

QOTD: zero…zilch…zip…nada…..

QOTD: None that I can remember either – perhaps a Greek white when I was younger but I struggle. After this episode I will definately be seeking some out.

Cheers,

Great episode, will try to find this wine. Do not know how much luck I will have but will try.

QOTD – None

QOTD: Can’t remember having any Eastern European wine but I think I’ll find out if my local wine stores have any Croatian wine.

QOTD: Never had an eastern european wine however after this episode I want to go to Disney and have some ostrich!!!
