Korčula, Pošip is being also produced by the winery Blato 1902, which offers Pošip, Plavac Mali and table wines (made of one or more sorts of grapes). Among the other varieties the most important is Grk, which has a very high reputation, is very specific and difficult to grow, and its wines are quite sought after. It is produced in a very limited number of locations, mostly in Lumbarda on the island of Korčula, the only place where varietal wines can be found. There are several small local produc-7 Dalmatia dubrovnik
ers, including Branko Cebalo, the Fidulić family, Frano Milina Bire, Bartul Batistić Zure, etc. Most of them offer Plavac Mali (which is needed for pollination purposes in the Grk's vineyards), while the quantity of other wine varieties is small - notably Korkyra, a mixture of native white varieties with the largest share of Cetinka, light and fresh, a very reasonably priced wine.
Dubrovnik's Cellars Winery Inc. is the largest producer of wine in the Konavle district, which offers a notable wine Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon (under the names Merlotina and Trajectum) as well as Plavac Mali. But, the most interesting in that area is Dubrovnik's Malvasia, successfully revitalized a few years ago, and today several excellent wineries offer this wine - these are primarily the Karaman family (which won the sherry champion title at the international competition "The World of Malvasia 2009") and Andro Crvik, Miho Bratoš, Cellar Marinović, who apart from Malvasia offer other wines too.
