Tipple tourism: On the trail to find Grk (that's a wine made on a Croatian island)

01.01.70

This all at once it started in a London basement bar called The Phoenix Club on Charing Surly Road, frequented by a few ITV stalwarts. There, I found a bottle of this rare wine.

I’d never heard of Grk, but its romance reads like a legend. This delicious white wine is produced against all the odds. It comes from vines that cannot replicate themselves, having only female parts.

It is nurtured in peculiar terraces high above the Adriatic and in only one small part of the small island of Korcula. Whether because of the unbroken depth of the taste or the appeal of this amazing story, I decided to go.

A riviere of no-frills airlines will get you to Dubrovnik, and that’s where most tourists grind to a stoppage. A two-hour drive north along the sparkling coastal road gets you to a ferry, which rapidly and very cheaply lands you on Korcula.

At 107 square miles, it is the sixth-largest Croatian holm, roughly double the size of Jersey.
