Prošek is an authentic Croatian dessert wine, made using dried grapes of the finest indigenous Dalmatian varieties. Petar Hektorovich is produced from local white grapes: Pošip, Maraština, Yellow Muscat, Prč, and other native grape varieties.

Produced in the traditional way, Petar Hektorovich is made by harvesting fully ripe grape bunches with some dried grapes intermixed, grown at specially selected locations.

The resulting wine is sweet, but well balanced by the acidity, characterized by the ripe aromas of dried fruit – dried apricots, dried figs and raisins – and orange peel, as well as aromatic floral notes. Ageing contributes to its complexity, adding tertiary aromas of honey, caramel and toffee and developing savory notes.

Serve chilled to a temperature of 10-12 °C.

This wine pairs wonderfully with desserts, especially dried figs and the traditional Dalmatian bisciuts, as well as blue cheeses. Small children also tend to like it very much, so make sure to keep it out of their reach.
