Tasting Experiences
The setting at this winery is delightfully casual, but the wines are anything but. The Plančić brothers are true wine obsessives, deeply committed to the craft and capable of building phenomenal wines from the ground up. Established in 1919, Plančić uses only indigenous grape varieties from the island of Hvar, and their wines are interestingly different from what you may be used to elsewhere.

About this Experience
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Location: Vrbanj

- Duration: 45 minutes
- Pricing: €35 p/p
In the inland village of Vrbanj, this family winery run by brothers Mario and Ante Plančić is renowned for producing wine exclusively from autochthonous Hvar grape varieties, and bringing to life the rich tradition of wine on Hvar.
The atmosphere here is fantastically laidback. You will feel like you’ve just stopped by your friend’s back porch, who just happens to serve up home-cured olives and a flight of wildly inventive, consistently palate-pleasing wines.
Founded in 1919, the Plančić brothers’ winery has grown in prestige, beginning modern wine production in 1985 with their first harvest. Their Bogdanuša (white) and Opolo (pink) wines garnered international acclaim, earning medals at the Novi Sad wine exhibition in 1986. The brothers’ winemaking philosophy is deeply rooted in the island's unique terroir. Their commitment to only using native grapes ensures that each bottle offers a distinctive taste, setting their wines apart from the ubiquitous Chardonnays and Cabernet Sauvignons.
One of their standout creations is the Pharos Grand Cru, which has recently earned accolades in London and has become a favourite among their offerings.
