Embark on an adventure to explore the island of Brač and enjoy a private wine tasting tour of the island, getting acquainted with two excellent yet vastly different wineries and their prized wines.
Meet your private chauffeur and catch the local ferry from Split to Brač island. After a pleasant 50-minute cruise, you will arrive to the island that is home to the exquisite limestone that was used to build Diocletian’s Palace in Split and the United States White House. The strong and beautiful stone also inspired the name of Stina (meaning Rock) winery, housed in place of the former island wine cooperative dating back to 1903. Today, Stina has been refurbished into one of the most modern wineries in Dalmatia and is intensely working on replanting old vineyards located on the steep slopes of the island.
Enjoy tasting traditional Dalmatian varieties of Plavac Mali, Pošip and Vugava before continuing with your chauffeur inland, driving along the curving panoramic roads rising high above Bol and the famous Golden Horn beach. A quick stop at Vidova Gora viewpoint, the highest peak of all the Croatian islands, provides spectacular views that stretch all the way to Hvar, Vis and Korčula islands on a clear day.
Continuing to the small village of Dračevica, you will arrive to the Senjković family winery which boasts a 100-year-old wine producing tradition. Saša and Magdalena, the master vintners behind Senjković wines, are also the hardworking and creative minds behind the immense popularity that this boutique winery and its’ award-winning wines have garnered in recent years. Enjoy tasting their Plavac Mali wines, including the fabulous rosé Spoža that has the tendency to sell out before it is even bottled!
Complete your private wine tour of Brač island with an authentic meal of Dalmatian specialties in a traditional ‘konoba’ before returning to Split.
Optional extra: Book Magdalena’s extraordinary wine and food paring in Senjković winery for a truly spectacular culinary experience.
