Podrumi Krešić was founded by Dario Krešić on the banks of the Danube in picturesque Šarengrad, Croatia. The winemaking story began in 2006 with the planting of the first vineyard. Today, six carefully selected vineyard locations between Šarengrad and Opatovac produce distinctive wines from the Slavonia region of eastern Croatia.
The winery focuses on Graševina (Welschriesling), Croatia's most widely planted and celebrated grape variety, which thrives in the continental climate and rich soils along the Danube river valley.

Graševina (also known as Welschriesling) is Croatia’s most widely planted grape variety. This fresh, aromatic white wine offers notes of green apple, citrus, and white flowers, with a crisp acidity and clean finish.
Pairs well with fresh seafood, light salads, and appetizers.
In 1992 the Hill-Smith family counted themselves amongst those fortunate enough to own a vineyard upon the famous Coonawarra terra rossa soil over limestone. Experimentation, innovation, minimalist intervention and small batch winemaking has resulted in The Menzies’ reputation as a wine of longevity, elegance and structure.
Deep crimson with a plum hue. Aromas of fresh blackcurrants, mulberry, ozone, violets and exotic spices. Take a sip and you will feel the poise and tension for which great Cabernet is renowned. A wine of great complexity with flavors of blackcurrant jubes, bitter chocolate and mulberries, wrapped in divine tannins and a lovely sweet, dark fruit finish. With decanting in its youth it is enjoyable as an elegant full-bodied red wine.
Wonderful with a chargrilled rib eye on the bone or porcini mushroom, thyme and quinoa risotto.
Review:
Prune plums and blackcurrants. Violets, lavender leaf and black cherry. Olive tapenade, rosemary and crushed black peppercorn. The wine is held together by a fine mesh of grape and subtle oak tannins, intertwined with pure Coonawarra cabernet fruit. It’s chiselled in its dimension, and you might miss it, as it has such great drinking pleasure. Fruit purity, lovingly handled equals total seduction.
