Vineyards, Pelješac

If your idea of the perfect holiday is first-class wine and shellfish combined with staying in a campsite along pebbly or sandy beaches, then you will not be disappointed on the Pelješac peninsula.

This peninsula is the most well-known vineyard area of southern Croatia, and the wine from the Pelješac wine-cellars complements Mali Ston oysters perfectly. These delicacies from Mali Ston are reputed to possess aphrodisiac qualities. They were sought-after even in Renaissance times, when they were an indispensable part of the feasts of Dubrovnik’s nobility. When it comes to the wines, dingač, postup and plavac mali are all native Pelješac varieties. The best way to get to know them would be to follow one of the many Pelješac wine-routes.
