Klemenka Sauvignon from Korak Winery in Croatia’s Plešivica wine region is a standout dry white wine, named after the vineyard it originates from. The wine is crafted through a meticulous process, including several days of maceration, fermentation in large wooden barrels, and aging on fine lees for 10 months in both barrels and stainless steel tanks.


This approach results in a complex, vibrant wine with aromas of nettle, fresh-cut grass, blackcurrant blossoms, asparagus, peas, and elderflower. On the palate, it is fresh, intense, and well-rounded, with a lively yellow-green hue. Best served at 11-12°C, it pairs excellently with veal, pork, lamb, goat cheese, fried fish, vegetable dishes, salads, tomatoes, and asparagus.


Klemenka Sauvignon is a superb expression of Sauvignon Blanc, offering a refined taste of Croatia’s Plešivica terroir.
