Rose wine was traditionally called “opol” in Dalmatia. Opol was once the most important wine of the Svirče area. Regrettably, due to the vagaries of fashion, its production is now miniscule: no more than a handful of producers still pursue it. The pink color of the wine is achieved by short maceration (12 hours).
The name is a pun on “rosemary”, a herb that thrives across our island, but can also be read as “a marine Rose’”.
