Wine for life
How are we different?
Our wine tells the original story of the difficult times on the island of Vis and the monetary value of Plavac wine exchanged by the islanders for food. An equal respect for history and terroir is what makes us different.
VISLANDER
The story of Vislander is a story about islanders – the people of Vis and Britain. While the Second World War was raging in the Adriatic, Vis was hiding a secret British air base. In the isolation the people of Vis lacked food, while the British pined for the pleasures of peacetime. That is why grandma Frona and grandfather Jure made an additional alliance with the British. They traded wine for food, a dry military meal for the Plavac. The PERFECT SANDFIELD TERRAIN and sustained labor made this alliance victorious.
Each bottle of our Plavac is a journey through the exciting history of the island of Vis and a small celebration of life.
SIMPLICITY
Our wine invites you to enjoy good company, food and drink.
AUTHENTICITY
Our wine is a first-hand experience of the past, when Plavac was a means of survival for islanders.
