Pelješac Wines: A Guide to Plavac Mali, Pošip and Native Varieties
Pelješac Wines
Pelješac is a peninsula that few tourists put on their map – and that is precisely what makes it so special. While others rush toward Dubrovnik or Split, those who detour to Pelješac discover something no guidebook can capture: authenticity, silence, and flavours that linger long after returning home.
Why Pelješac is Exceptional on Pelješac
Every corner of Pelješac has its own story. Vineyards planted on stone terraces, olive trees over a century old, fishing boats that set out each morning into pristine waters – together these create an ecosystem of flavour found nowhere else in the Mediterranean.
At Konoba Feral in Brijesta, that story reaches its culmination on the plate. The family restaurant run by the Božović family since 2005 embodies everything Dalmatia means: freshness, simplicity, and a love of food.
What to Visit and Experience
- Brijesta – a quiet fishing bay overlooking the sea and shellfish beds
- Ston – Europe's longest defensive walls and the only oysters with a two-millennia tradition
- Viganj and Orebić – a paradise for windsurfers and active holiday seekers
- Pelješac wines – visit local wineries and taste Plavac Mali straight from the source
Konoba Feral: Where Tradition Becomes a Gastronomic Experience
Every day the Božović family rises early. Grandfather goes fishing, grandmother prepares homegrown ingredients, and the lunch served at the konoba reflects seasonal availability and a passionate commitment to authenticity.
No frozen fish. No industrial oil. Only what is local, fresh and ecologically grown in Brijesta and the surrounding area.
"Cooking is not just about ingredients – it is about honouring the land, the sea, and the people who bring them to your table."
