Visit Peljesac, one of Croatia’s most renowned wine regions, and taste some of Croatia’s best wines!
Peljesac, the country’s second largest peninsula, just a 50 minute drive west of Dubrovnik, is home to Plavac Mali, an indigenous red grape variety that produces some of Croatia’s finest wines.
Your eight-hour wine adventure begins with a scenic drive along the coast. Before indulging in wine tasting, you’ll have time to explore Ston, a charming fortified medieval town at the very start of the peninsula.
After free time in Ston, your journey continues through the Dalmatian landscapes on the way to the wineries. Traditional stone houses, olive groves, and vineyards unfold along the way – some set in small karst fields, others sprawled across gentle and steep slopes – offering a glimpse into the diversity of flavors awaiting you on this adventure.
Each winery you visit has its own unique story, and as you savor the local flavors, your hosts will share the deep connection between wine making and life on the peninsula.
The vineyards of Dingac on Peljesac Peninsula are among the steepest in the world. The combination of sea, sun, and stone creates a unique microclimate that infuses these wines with a distinct flavor. The region’s winemakers even built a tunnel in the seventies to more easily transport grapes, highlighting their dedication to quality wine making.
