Their excellent wine selection and fantastic tasting experience are sure to impress. They also offer liqueurs, brandy, vinegar, and olive oil.
- Potomje - Located in Potomje, near the steep vineyard slopes on the south side of Pelješac. Generations of winemakers here exclusively use Plavac Mali grapes from their own plantations in Postup and Dingač. They are known for their top-quality wines, produced in limited quantities. Due to their quality-over-quantity policy, these wines are rare finds.

Their exceptional wines have earned numerous awards and recognitions. Guests can also enjoy a variety of liqueurs.

Additional Information
Peljesac, the second-largest peninsula in Croatia, is a 45-minute drive from Dubrovnik. Some of Croatia’s finest red wines originate from this region. The vineyards in Peljesac benefit from triple insolation, receiving sunlight, sea light, and hill light, which significantly boosts the sugar content in the grapes. Due to the specific locations of the vineyards, mechanization is not possible, leading to all processes being completed manually. The combination of natural factors and diligent work results in outstanding wines. The experience of savoring exquisite wines whilst soaking in the stunning vistas of the Peljesac vineyards is unique.

Great guide, wine, food and scenery - Our driver, Ordan, was a mine of information. Visited 3 vineyards, all offering superb wines. Ordan had arranged a table for lunch in the best restaurant we have visited on this trip, with superb seafood and magnificent views. We would not hesitate to recommend this trip to anyone interested in wine (or food). Excellent value for money.

An Amazing Experience - This is a once in a lifetime experience- meeting wine makers who share family stories and the fruits of their efforts in a most personal way. The pride in their product is well deserved as the 100per cent pure grape of each wine was noteworthy. For those aware of Napa, California, USA, this tout is like going back to those early days of family run wineries.
Lastly, our driver, Ogden, a non drinker is a true gem - his concern for our experience was evident in all steps. His knowledge of the history of Croatia and very pleasant manner provided a 5 star experience!
As a tourism professor , i gained new insights and an appreciation for this region of Croatia.

Excellent Full Day Wine Tour - Our day with Pero was delightful! After pick-up in Mlini, we drove to Peljesac while getting to know our guide and some of the local history of Dubrovnik. We visited three unique wine estates with interesting stories about their products and winemaking. The first was a small production family business with white/red selections to taste and buy. The second was most interesting to me as he was creating both still and sparkling wines and also had delicious fruit liqueurs...plus there was a small food platter to add to our tastebuds. We visited the third larger property after lunch and enjoyed our tasting on the outdoor patio in the warmth and sunshine. Our choice to enjoy lunch in a small fresh seafood restaurant was perfect...views of the bay and the boats while enjoying wine and the catch of the day. I highly recommend this tour and company for an excellent experience while visiting the Dubrovnik region.

Wine tour - Wonderful day spent with Ordan for the wine tour! Every location we went to was great! The facilities were so good! Everyone was so knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about how the wine is made, and having tours of the wine cellars! And of course drinking the wine! Totally would recommend!

Perfect wine adventure on rainy day - Our host Ordan was so knowledgeable about the wine growing area of Peljesac but was very astute in his knowledge of the peninsula in comparison to other wine making region in other countries. My husband, myself and our friends had a great time wine tasting. We also enjoyed a great lunch with oysters. Yum!
