The Story
Mladen Rožanić is famous for his uncompromising vision and his deep dedication to his family. A special series of his most extraordinary creations is named after his six daughters. The Mara 4/6 is a loving tribute to his daughter Mara. While most people associate rosé with quick, light patio drinking, Mladen approaches it from a completely different angle. He treats this rosé with the exact same royal care and patience as his grand red wines. Following fermentation, the juice undergoes extended aging in large wooden casks. The result is an extraordinary, gastronomic rosé that completely redefines conventional boundaries.
The Vibe & Tasting Notes
The Mara 4/6 2021 displays a breathtaking, deep coral pink color in the glass. This is a serious, layered, and remarkably rich rosé. On the nose, you are greeted by complex aromas of ripe wild strawberries, red currants, dried flowers, subtle oak integration, and a touch of Mediterranean herbs. The palate feels silky smooth and structured, boasting a flawless harmony between juicy red fruit, fine minerality, and uplifting acidity. A brilliant bottle that belongs at the dinner table, pairing magnificently with grilled tuna or delicate lamb dishes.

Why natural wine costs more, and why it’s worth it
-
No shortcuts
Growers who refuse pesticides and chemical additives accept that they’ll lose a significant part of their harvest to weather, disease, and unpredictable nature, but they do it to keep their wines pure, alive, and honest.
-
Risk and loss
Nature swings between plenty and scarcity; frost, hail, heat and ferments can erase volumes, fewer bottles must carry the farm’s costs, with ageing measures adding expense to keep the wine clean and true over time.
-
Integrity and handwork
Hands replace chemicals: they weed, manage canopies, pick, and sort by hand; presses and gravity moves protect texture, while cleanliness and patient ageing deliver purity without shortcuts, increasing labor but preserving integrity in every bottle.
