DAMA

Lacman Dama Barrique 2022 Crafted from a blend of four white varieties, Bogdanuša, Maraština, Pošip, and Kuč, Lacman Dama Barrique 2022 stands as a testament to Hvar’s viticultural heritage. This wine has matured in non-toasted Slavonian oak barrels for one year, enriching it with complexity and depth. Initially, the grapes were vinified separately and macerated for seven days before the final blending. The wine reveals a deep golden hue, a visual prelude to its matured character. The nose is met with an evolved bouquet, where the ripe citrus zest of lemon and orange combines with the earthy whispers of dry basil and thyme. Subtle notes of nettles and the warm, nutty aroma of almonds are seamlessly integrated, with the oak’s presence providing a refined backdrop.

On the palate, Lacman Dama Barrique 2022 is a full-bodied wine, with its medium acidity ensuring a vibrant backbone. The tannic structure, a legacy of its skin contact, offers a silky, smooth profile, culminating in a very long finish that unveils layers of buttery richness. To fully appreciate the nuanced evolution of this wine, serve it at 12 to 15 degrees Celsius. It pairs exquisitely with Dalmatian cuisine, reflecting its complexity in dishes that are both robust and refined. Opt for dishes such as grilled swordfish with a thyme and lemon infusion, a hearty ratatouille or vegetable stew rich in herbs and olive oil, or a matured hard cheese platter featuring figs and walnuts.

ESENCA

Dry red wine from 100% Plavac Mali grape variety. Pronounced intensity, clean nose. On the nose perceived sweetness, black plums, dark cherries, and dry herbs, very perfumed and inviting. On the palate medium-plus acidity, tart and drying tannins, full-body, bone dry, and long, long finish. Wine of great aging potential.

FRIŠKA

Lacman Friška 2023 This vibrant, fresh white wine from the Lacman Family Winery is crafted from indigenous Dalmatian grape varieties: Maraština, Pošip, and Bogdanuša, the latter being exclusive to Hvar. Although Maraština makes up two-thirds of the blend, it’s the Pošip that lends the wine its distinctive nose. The nose is clean and fresh, of moderate intensity, with notes of citrus fruits, especially grapefruit, mingled with stone fruits, primarily apricot, and a subtle herbal undertone of sage and even rosemary.

These characteristics become more pronounced at room temperature, enhancing the wine’s predominant fresh fruit aroma. On the palate, the wine displays medium acidity, offering refreshment, yet with a medium to full body, and just a hint of alcohol to remind us of the warm vintage of 2023. This wine is complex and oily, elevating it beyond the typical summery aperitif wine. It is reminiscent of some white blends from the Rhône Valley, like those of Viognier and Grenache Blanc, which are delightful when young but reveal their full potential a couple of years down the line.

Avoid serving it super cold to prevent masking its aromatic complexity. It pairs wonderfully with aromatic seafood dishes such as octopus salad, and a savory white brodetto, “brudet na bilo”, as we call it. For meat lovers try it with veal saltimbocca. My ideal pairing would be monkfish tripe.

LACMANUŠA

ONLY SELECTED YEARS

Lacmanuša, macerated for seven days with its skin on, is a dry white wine made from 100% Bogdanuša, an indigenous Dalmatian grape variety, native to Hvar. Bogdanuša means “given by God” and has been cultivated on the island of Hvar for centuries, if not millennia.  

The wine has a pale amber color due to its maceration. On the nose, a medium pronounced intensity with herbaceous aromas of fennel and hay leading the way, followed by nutty aromas of almond and some citrusy aromas of wild orange cutting through and keeping it fresh.

On the palate, the wine shows medium acidity but is still vibrant enough to enjoy several glasses. The wine has a medium body and slight signs of alcohol. This wine is a bit raw and wild, although thoroughly enjoyable. The finish is of medium length and has that nice tangerine taste to it.

This wine should be served at temperatures between 9 and 12 degrees. Try it with oysters, or some other shellfish, raw or grilled on an open fire, or a simple basil pesto pasta with a good shave of Brač or aged Pag sheep cheese.

MOCA

Rose wine from 75% Plavac mali grapes & 25% Drnekusa . It is made in a saignée method of rosé winemaking that involves “bleeding” off a portion of red wine juice after it’s been in contact with the skins and seeds. Hence the deeper, fuller color, reminiscent of some Southern Rhone roses.

The first nose gives a load of fresh strawberries and raspberries, but also that fresh grape, vinous kick. There is a citrus note as well, more of grapefruit than lemon, and then some herbal notes, reminiscent of tarragon.

On the palate, this is a medium-bodied, but bold rose, with a very firm structure and silky tannins. Acidity is refreshing, but this is not an aperitif wine. This is an invigorating food wine.

Pair it with shellfish stews, grilled poultry or grilled tuna. Serve it slightly chilled, but not under 9 degrees if you want to experience the entire kaleidoscope of aromas that this wine has to offer.

NEKTAR

Nektar by Lacman Family Winery is a distinctive blend of Pošip, Bogdanuša, and Maraština, macerated on the skins for seven months in amphoras of 1700 and 600 liters. The result is a wine of remarkable character and depth. 
 
The color is a deep honeyed amber, with subtle hues and pleasing clarity for an orange wine. On the nose, the first impression is nutty, with notes of candied orange and a touch of hay. However, with a swirl or two, the wine opens up beautifully, revealing layers of complexity. Aromas of smooth, warm, almost creamy Arabian jasmine are followed by dried chamomile and linden, transitioning to elegant honey-buttery notes and the crisp bitterness of dried grapefruit skin. The underlying nuttiness provides a steady foundation for these intricate aromas, present but never overpowering. This is a wine that truly benefits from a large Burgundy glass, allowing its layered bouquet to fully express itself. 
 
On the palate, Nektar is full-bodied, with a silky, almost oily texture. The alcohol is nearly imperceptible, while the medium acidity provides just enough freshness to make each sip inviting. A hint of bitterness on the finish, characteristic of Pošip, adds complexity without detracting from the experience. The lingering aftertaste is nutty and persistent, leaving a lasting impression. 
 
Nektar is a wine of depth and elegance, one that rewards patience and exploration. Ideal for contemplative sipping.

 
 

PREDOBRO

The Lacman Family Winery embodies a philosophy of crafting wines for their own enjoyment, ensuring an uncompromising dedication to quality. This approach is evident in their youthful Plavac Mali, a dry red wine that captures the raw essence of its varietal and terroir.

Produced from 100% Plavac Mali grapes, this wine offers pronounced aromatic intensity and a clean, precise nose. Its bouquet features vibrant notes of sour cherry, violet, and garigue, balanced by subtle herbal undertones that enhance its complexity. On the palate, it reveals a rich profile, with ripe plum and sour cherry leading the way. Medium acidity and firm, drying tannins provide structure, while a full body ensures a lasting impression.

The wine’s finish is long and expressive, with retro-nasal aromas of plum and cherry that linger elegantly. Its balance and restraint allow the natural characteristics of the grape to shine, with minimal oak influence that supports rather than dominates. This approach highlights the purity and vibrancy of Plavac Mali, presenting it in its most authentic form.

With its intense, structured character and exceptional balance, this wine exemplifies the Lacman Family Winery’s commitment to crafting authentic, high-quality expressions of southern Croatian viticulture.

TEŽOK

Težok is a macerated, dry white wine made from 100% Pošip grape variety, the most important Dalmatian white grape variety found mostly on the island of Korčula, but in many other wine-growing regions as well. The wine has been macerated for seven days on the skin.

The wine has a deep golden yellow color with the amber hues from maceration. On the nose pronounced intensity. After all, this is a semi-aromatic grape variety. The first nose is fruity, with stone fruit aromas, peach, and nectarines. On a second nose, the Mediterranean floral-herbal character comes through with the notes of jasmine interacting with the notes of fresh oregano and thyme. Citrusy aromas are deeper in the glass, as the notes of orange marmalade and orange zest appear after several swirls.

On the palate, the wine shows medium acidity, medium to full body, very fine tannins, and no alcohol to be detected. A connoisseur of Pošip could recognize the ever so slight, but typical zesty bitterness on the palate as well. The finish is prolonged and very pleasant.

Serve Lacman Pošip slightly chilled, between 9 and 12 degrees. Enjoy it with seafood, especially with firmer fish like scorpionfish, grilled over an open fire, but also with the white fish stews or even the traditional Dalmatian “Bakalar in bianco”, salted cod with potatoes and copious amounts of olive oil.
