This wine tour will take you to the beautiful Pelješac peninsula. Located in the heart of South Dalmatia, this picturesque area is home to some of the most intriguing red wines in Europe. This fantastic wine tour includes several wine-tasting opportunities at local wine cellars and a relaxing visit to the vineyards on the slopes of the peninsula.

Your host Mario Bartulović, a renowned Croatian wine-maker will first guide you through the Miloš winery, home of the charismatic poet-wine maker Frano Miloš, where you will get a chance to taste his red MILOS PLAVAC or his STAGNUM, also a red, made of 100% Plavac Mali grapes, a variety that is said to be the original Zinfandel.

Next stop is the Grgic winery in Trstenik. Miljenko Grgich studied wine-making in Zagreb. After migrating to the US, with only 20 dollars in his pocket, he founded the famous Grgich Hills winery in Napa Valley but not before he made a name for himself being part of Chateau Montelena success story in the 70s. While you visit the Grgic cellars, you will taste their famous white Posip and their red Plavac Mali Dingac. The winery is located on a hill, overlooking the incredibly charming Trstenik harbor.
