Day 4 of what is proving to be a challenging quiz. I remember this bottle from an event this winter…
Day 4 of the Wines of Balkans quiz about Hvar wines, which is proving to be quite a challenge.
First up, the answer to Day 3’s question:
Answers to Hvar Wine Quiz – Day 3: 1. Parents of Plavac mali are Crljenak Kaštelanski (a.k.a. Primitivo & Zinfandel) and Dobričić. 2. Home of Dobričić variety is Šolta island in Croatia and USA admires Crljenak Kaštelanski (they call it Zinfandel!) 3. Top 5 regions where Plavac mali grows in Dalmatia are: Dingač, Postup, Hvar, Brač & Vis (or Korčula)!
And now for Question 4, about a bottle I recognise well…
Hvar Wine Quiz – Day 4: This is a bottle of a special wine called Jugana from the 2000 harvest. This is a Bogdanuša-based blend (Bogdanuša means ‘God given’ or ‘Given from God’ and it is a white indigenous variety from Hvar island). Question: 1. Who is Jugana & 2. name the two Hvar-loving wine ‘artists’ who made this wine?
