WINES

In the course of the history Hercegovinian wines have been glorified throughout Europe, above all, however, in the Austro-Hungarian palaces of the 19th century. It is hard to believe that quality wines can be grown in the unfriendly Hercegovinan karst. But exactly this abundance of stone and the meditarranean climate are the one and only place in the world, where the wines Žilavka and Blatina can be grown. More than 2,300 insolation hours are gently stroking the unique stony vinyards –the home of the white, aromatic Žilavka and the ruby Blatina, with its unmistakeable aroma and the rich, harmonic flavour. Degustate the poetry in bottles and the typical culinary specialties of the Hercegovina – pršut (Hercegovinian ham), uštipci (domestic fritters) and typical Hercegovinan cheese.

VenYvea organises wine tours through the Hercegovinian wine region.
