Korčula wines: Pošip and Grk

Pošip

Pošip is an indigenous white grape from the central part of the island, where the fields around Čara and Smokvica give fresh, full-bodied wines with notes of ripe fruit. It is the best-known wine of Korčula and a perfect match for fish and seafood.

Grk

Grk grows almost exclusively on the sandy soils of Lumbarda. It is a rare variety and the vineyards are small, so a glass of Grk is a real local speciality.

Tasting

Many family wineries welcome visitors for tastings, often with home-made olive oil, cheese and prosciutto. Join a wine tour and let a local driver take you from cellar to cellar.
