IN VINO VERITAS

Wine Tasting Experiences Around Mostar

Tradition of wine making in the region of present day Herzegovina dates at least 2200 years in the past. Bosnia and Herzegovina has inherited a viticultural and wine culture from the Illyrians, while the first vine seedlings were brought to the Balkans by the Thracians.

Indeed, Herzegovina wines are all you need to taste when traveling around the Western Balkans. Probably you know that 3-5% of global wine production is biodynamic? Herzegovina biodynamic wines and other endemic sorts are must taste experiences.

The most popular among other sorts are, Žilavka (white) and Blatina (red) sort of wines, which actually are endemic to Herzegovina region. Meaning, if you “dare” to taste Herzegovinian wines, it is high probability that you will only try them in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as majority of locally produced wines are locally consumed.
