Due to long term acquaintance and socializing based on friendship in 2006 a group of 9 enthusiasts (none of which is related to the production of grapes or wine) has established a non-profit Association Plavac mali Zagreb with a sole purpose:
to promote a Croatian sort of wine from the autochthonic grape “plavac mali” which has long been a provider to the historically battered Dalmatia.
South-west slopes of Pelješac peninsula and the islands of Brač, Hvar, Korčula and Vis have a unique location that enables the breeding of the sort Plavac mali the best.
Exposed directly to the sun and the sun rays that reflect off the sea and the rock with the beneficial air streaming, this vine gives the famous Croatian wine (Dingač, Postup, Ivan Dolac…).
If there hadn’t been for the hard work of the eager wine-growers that sometimes, on steep slopes demands superhuman effort, the karst wouldn’t have been turned into vineyards.
Due to experience and knowledge based on tradition, at the end of this centuries-old story, a new story is being born, decanted to top-quality wine from the sort PLAVAC MALI.
GROZD PLAVAC MALI ltd. in November 2009 published a book Plavac mali - a Croatian grape for great wines from authors Edi Maletić, Ivan Pejić and Jasminka Karoglan Kontić.
Book is bilingual deluxe edition about birth of Plavac Mali, the first historical records about this sort, characteristics of this sort, wines and the positions and soils where it grows, the favorable climate and about related varieties as well as the father of this sort Crljenak Kaštela - Tribidrag - Zinfandel.
