TASTE OF HVAR (WINE TASTING TOUR 6pm-?):
According to an ancient legend, when God distributed benefits, Dalmatians got grapevine... because, at a place where sun burns the rocks, where soil is thirsty, where rocky ground prevails, hardly any crop may survive. That is exactly Dalmatia and that is where grapevine found its homeland.
For as early as the 4th ctr. BC, the Ancient Greeks brought the grape vine to this sunny island and planted it in the fertile plain of the ancient town Pharos.
Throughout the centuries of rich and turbulent history, people on Hvar cultivated their vineyards with great skill and care, blessed with the lushness of Mediterranean. Grapes and wine gave them safety, food and medicine. They grew some of the finest varieties in this area, but the challenge still remains: how to turn this richness and harmony into great wines.
Tour starts at 6pm. After 30min drive we arrive to Jelsa, small town on the north coast of the island. It used to be one of the most significant maritime, shipbuilding and trade centres of the Adriatic, starting point for ocean-going sailing vessels carrying best wines of Hvar, olive oil and salted fish to far destinations all over the world.
We visit two significant local wine producers. Besides wine tasting you will have opportunity to spend the evening in one nice restaurant, so you can stay for the dinner. Beautiful and quiet ambience, nice choice of local wines and food will make your visit to Jelsa easy, relaxing and unforgettable experience…
