Harvest time
October 2025
At least in Kosor it is and we celebrated with the annual Vinobrani party at the football pitch on October 18th. If you missed it, pencil it in for 2026, it’s a hoot !
This years harvest brought us a selection of French wines from our partner Lex Vinum, and there is plenty to look forward too. Be it elegant, crisp sauvignon or more full bodied chardonnay’s, the white give a sample of arguably the best white varieties France puts in a bottle. Our reds a split between the traditional blends of the Rhone valley and Bordeaux. A mix of rich and tannin that will force you to choose the best companion for your dinner.
So as the fall unfolds, and the weather turn to “less inspiring”, cook up something special, curl u on the couch and enjoy something rich from the Frech country in your glass.
Santé !

Simple, yet elegant and full of minerals and exotic fruit. A little banana and pineapple makes this familiar and relaxing taste.

Mike's Tip
An interesting blend in this "Garden of Magic". Mixing the long oily finish of Viognier with a much wilder taste of Grenache Blanc makes for a complex blend will stand up to most any food, chicken and pork included.

Something hidden inside this simple chardonnay. Try decanting before you drink to discover something more. A buttery flavor is hidden inside.

A blend of white fruits makes this mix of Grenache Blanc and Vermentino a delicate yet relatively full flavored drink. Will go great with salty white fish or shrimp pasta.

Mike's Tip
Deep in color and taste. The dark Granat and purple color is nearly opaque and the flavor with some oak tone is rich and chocolaty. Heavier than you will expect.

Rich and spicey best describes this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Marselan, Merlot, and Syrah. A mix of red fruit and licorice awaits

A classic Bordeaux blend of Cabernet, merlot and a dash of tannin. This is the kind of wine that cries out of steak to make a perfect combo.

A red fruit blend of cherry and red current all bound up in a well balanced and rounded wine. If you think of Syrah and Grenache, you won't be disappointed.
