Dalmatia hakkında
Dalmatia runs down the Adriatic coast from Zadar to Dubrovnik, with its islands. Its wines are dominated by Plavac Mali, from the steep coastal slopes of the Pelješac peninsula, especially Dingač, in 1961 the first Croatian wine to be given a protected geographical origin, and Postup, as well as from the islands of Hvar and Brač.
It is also where Tribidrag, or Crljenak Kaštelanski, was found, the grape identified as the original of Zinfandel and Primitivo, and where the rare Dobričić survives on the island of Šolta.
