Bura Ruža dalmatinska, traditionally called Prošek, is a dessert wine from Dalmatia. Produced through the process known as passito (Passum) – raisin wine – invariable since ancient times and widely practiced throughout the Mediterranean.
Traditionally, Prošek is the result of the vinification of dried grapes after the harvest without any additives.
In Dalmatia, there is a long tradition linking Prošek’s production with the birth of children. The year of birth of the child, the grapes are selected after the harvest, dried and Prošek is produced. It is stored under the ground until the day of the wedding, when finally it is opened for celebration.

Tasting note
The wine is clear, golden amber yellow in color, of very high density and viscosity. Concentration high, very creamy.
On the nose: clean, very long-lasting scent, fine quality and very intense. Lots of fruity aromas, but those ripe, overripe and dried. Aromas of dried figs, dried fruits, dried apricots, orange peel, walnuts. Lots of yellow flowers, Mediterranean plants, the scent is balanced and very pleasant
In the mouth: sweet, warm and soft. Very oily and creamy, syrupy. Nice acids, delicious with a little higher alcohol but the sugars and acids covered it up nicely. Long-lasting taste, very harmonious, fruity and accentuated in the mouth, again an emphasis on dried fruit and candied fruit. Very long finish.
Serve it at a temperature of 14° C with blue cheeses, gorgonzola, Danish blue cheese, of our dishes do not offer it with too sweet dishes. Wine can be consumed now, but also this wine has the potential to age for up to 10 years. Great wine. 95/100
Opis vina
Vino je bistro, zlatno jantarno žute boje, vrlo visoke gustoće i viskoznosti. Koncentracija visoka, vrlo kremastno.
Na nosu: čisto, vrlo dugotrajnog mirisa, fine kakvoće i vrlo intenzivno.Puno voćnih aroma, ali onih zrelih, prezrelih i presušenih. Arome suhe smokve, suhica, suhih marelica, korice naranče, orasi. Jako puno žutog cvijeća, bilja meditranskog, miris je izbalansiran i vrlo ugodan
U ustima: slatko, toplo i mekano. Vrlo uljato i kremozno, sirupasto. Lijepih kiselina, ukusno sa malo višim alkoholom ali šećeri i kiseline su to lijepo pokrili. Dugotrajnog okusa, vrlo harmonično, voćast i u ustima naglašena, opet naglasak na sušeno voće i kandirano voće. Vrlo dugog završetka.
Poslužiti ga na temperaturi od 14° C uz plave sireve, gorgonzola, Danski blue cheese, od naših jela ne nuditi ga baš sa preslatkim jelima. Vino se može konzumirati sada, ali isto tako ovo vino ima potencijal za odležavanje do 10 godina. Sjajno vino. 95/100
