What to Pair

  • Vegetable or chicken korma with pulao
  • Oven-roasted halibut with almonds and saffron crema

About the Producer

We found this wine through Aleksandar Todorović, who farms about three hectares in the village of Lipovac in Serbia's Tri Morave region, on vineyards he inherited from his father. Instead of chasing the international grapes that dominate much of the Serbian market, he's built his whole project around indigenous whites like Grašac and Tamjanika, varieties farmers in this part of the country have grown for generations. 

 

In the cellar he keeps things minimal, with little to no added sulfur, no fining or filtration, and an organic and biodynamic approach to farming. We're drawn to producers like this because the wine actually tastes like Tri Morave, not like a formula that could have come from anywhere.

Why I Chose this Wine

Serbian wine doesn't get much shelf space on most wine shelfs, which is exactly why I wanted this bottle in my wine club and bottle shop. 

 

Todorović hand-harvests three hectares near Ražanj, working almost entirely with grapes most people outside the Balkans have never heard of, and it shows in the glass: honeysuckle and white peach up front, then something closer to wet stone by the finish. 

 

This is a beautiful expression of two of Serbia's indigenous grapes.
