Private Wine Tasting
Tomić Winery
The highlight of this Experience is undoubtedly the wine cellar, known as "Triklinij." Carved into the stone just like the ancient cellars of Diocletian, this space is truly breathtaking. The blend of travertine columns and vaulted ceilings not only provides an impressive setting for aging wines but also creates an atmosphere that is both timeless and inviting.
Tomić Winery produces between 130,000 and 150,000 bottles annually (a lot for such a small island!) drawing from around 10 hectares of meticulously maintained vineyards. The winery’s offerings include a range of distinctive wines such as Plavac mali, Prošek, Beleca white wine, and Opolo rosé.
During your tasting, you'll have the pleasure of sampling their autochthonous varieties as well as their experimental blends. Each wine, from the robust reds to the crisp whites and delicate rosés, showcases the meticulous care and innovation that Tomić Winery is known for. Special attention is given to Prošek, the traditional Dalmatian dessert wine, which is particularly noteworthy for its depth and richness.
The winery’s commitment to quality is evident through its rigorous self-control system, which includes a comprehensive HACCP plan and an operational laboratory for precise wine analysis. This dedication to maintaining high standards ensures that each bottle meets the highest quality benchmarks.
Your Experience will be a captivating journey through Hvar’s rich winemaking heritage, enhanced by the modern sophistication of Tomić Winery.
Meet the winemaker
Andro Tomić, born on the island of Hvar, has devoted his life to the art of winemaking. After two decades of training in France and beyond, he returned to Hvar to craft his own wines. Convinced that Hvar’s unique varieties, climate, and exceptional vineyard locations could restore its historic reputation in the wine world, Andro continues a 150-year family tradition with his son, Sebastijan. His acclaimed wines, including the renowned "1991," showcase the remarkable potential of the indigenous Plavac Mali and have sparked a renaissance in regional winemaking and viticulture.
