Details
This Graševina is the white wine equivalent of a refreshing dip in the Adriatic. Clean, crisp, and quietly complex, it delivers aromas of green apple, citrus peel, and a hint of white flowers, backed by a mineral, almost saline edge that screams coastal terroir. Bone-dry, zippy, and super light on its feet — this is the kind of white you pour once and immediately go back for a top-up.
Pomalo is more than just a wine project — it’s a vibe, a mantra, and a lifestyle distilled into a bottle. The word 'pomalo' in Croatian means “take it easy,” “slow down,” or “no rush” — and that perfectly sums up both the winemaking philosophy and the coastal energy behind these beautifully laid-back bottles. Created as a collaboration between Andrej Čiblak, a pioneer of Croatia’s natural wine movement, and the innovative folks at Vinas Mora, Pomalo celebrates the untamed beauty of the Dalmatian Coast. Vines are grown close to the sea, often on rugged, rocky plots surrounded by olive trees, wild herbs, and wind-swept cliffs. Farming is low-intervention and organic, and winemaking is just as hands-off — wild ferments, low sulphur, no filtering. The results are fresh, salty, and full of character — just like the coast itself. Pomalo wines are made to be shared, chilled, and enjoyed without pretense. It’s coastal Croatia in a glass: pure, honest, and joyfully relaxed.

Pairing guide
Graševina is a little-known white grape from Croatia, that's probably best described, stylistically, as Pinot Grigio with a little something extra. As such, it's perfect with fresh seafood — think grilled prawns, crudo, or simple white fish with lemon and herbs. It’s also great with zucchini fritters, light pasta dishes, or even sushi and sashimi. If you’d pack it in a cooler for a day on the water, you’re doing it right.
