Matošević Grimalda Red – Sip27, Split
A rich and well-balanced red blend from Istria, made from Merlot, Teran. It brings together ripe dark fruit, a hint of spice, and smooth oak influence. Structured but approachable, it's a great match for grilled dishes or simply sipping slowly. It’s aging nicely into an easy red.
Tried this at Sip27, a small and stylish bar tucked away in Split’s old town. A relaxed spot with a thoughtful wine list—perfect for discovering something local and memorable. The head Som is a wealth of knowledge and a local winemaker

A deep raspberry color sets the stage for a wine that is both vibrant and refined. The nose is layered with aromas of delicate roses, lychee, and the fresh, sweet essence of wild strawberry fields. Ripe raspberries add depth, complemented by a touch of spice that adds intrigue without overwhelming the senses. The high acidity is perfectly balanced, giving the wine a crisp, refreshing structure that keeps it lively. This wine is a sensory experience in itself—like a dessert that needs no accompaniment. Its bright, aromatic finish makes it ideal for sipping on a spring day in Venice, where its fresh, aromatic complexity mirrors the lightness of the spring season.
