Black Island Winery is located in the village of Smokvica on the island of Korčula and produces white wine from the Pošip grape called Merga Victa. This place, where the winery vineyards are located, was called Merga Victa by the local population, from which the name of the brand is derived. Merga Victa in Old Dalmatian literally means "path of water".

Extensive research in the field and discussions with oenologists have shown that the natural freshwater springs, which are abundant in this area, are most likely responsible for the emergence of a natural phenomenon such as the Pošip grape. Exactly where the vineyards of Merga Victa are located, there are these water sources, which, together with the brown-red soil and sunshine of 2880 hours per year, make this place perfect for growing grapes.
​

Merga Victa is a gift wine from a gift island. Nature has gifted the island of Korčula with a freshwater spring that nourishes the vineyards around the village of Smokvica, while talented enologists Igor Radovanović and Nikola Mirošević have taken the gift of the Pošip grape and created this enjoyable wine.
