Cleveland on the national list.

ROSY — 2912 Church Ave, Hingetown / Ohio City — just made The New York Times Restaurant List 2026: America’s 50 favorite restaurants. Unranked. New this year.

Open-fire only. Istrian peninsula cooking. Chef Vinnie Cimino and Andrew Watts. The Times called Istria “the ancestral homeland to generations of Ohioans.” We’re proud they’re a VS Croatian Imports customer.

That same Istrian and Danube story is what Boutique Croatian W**es brings to Ohio tables — Trapan and Brzica, a small focused collection. Visit https://www.boutiquecroatianw**es.com/

Congrats, ROSY. Congrats, Cleveland.

🍷 Now Pouring at Dubrovnik Gardens – Eastlake 🍷

We’re excited to share that Dubrovnik Garden Restaurant is now carrying our entire Croatian w**e portfolio.

That means guests can now pair authentic cuisine with w**es that truly belong at the table — from crisp, mineral-driven whites that shine with seafood to structured, food-friendly reds that stand up to heartier dishes.

With their upcoming Lenten Fish Specials, this is the perfect time to experience how well Croatian whites complement fresh fish and traditional preparations. Bright acidity, clean finishes, and coastal character make these w**es a natural match.

If you’re planning dinner in Eastlake, Dubrovnik Gardens is a destination for both exceptional food and distinctive Croatian w**es.

🍷 Restocked at Mike’s Market – Kirtland! 🍷

Our Croatian w**es have been restocked at Mike's Market, and one bottle in particular has been moving fast — Trapan Uroboros.

This w**e is made from a grape variety indigenous to Croatia (Istrian Malvasia), rarely found outside the country and almost never seen on retail shelves in the U.S. Very few retailers carry this variety, which makes finding it locally something special.

Uroboros has been generating a lot of interest thanks to its distinctive character and the chance to try something most w**e drinkers simply don’t have access to.

📍 Available now at Mike’s Market
9187 Chillicothe Rd, Kirtland, OH 44094

If you’re curious about truly unique w**es and want to explore beyond the usual international varieties, this is one worth checking out.

🍷 Restocked at Mike’s Market – Kirtland! 🍷

We’re happy to share that our Croatian w**es are back on the shelves at Mike’s Market after a recent restock.

Even better — we recently hosted a private w**e tasting, and the feedback was outstanding:

“We were amazed at the intense aroma that jumped out of the glass.”
“Balance is the key word here, both in the aroma and the mouthfeel.”
“A big, powerful w**e that can stand up to steaks, grilled meats, and spicy dishes.”

Several w**es scored 17–18.5 points out of 20, with notes highlighting cherry, herbs, spice, and long finishes

📍 Available now at Mike’s Market
9187 Chillicothe Rd, Kirtland, OH 44094
