The Wine Tasting Season Continues: Visit the Tomic Stand in Hvar Town


The summer may be over, but wine tasting is a year-round activity, and the team from Tomic, accompanied by other winemakers from the Hvar Wine Association, will be in action in Hvar Town on October 10, presenting a selection of their wines near the City Loggia.

The tasting coincides with the traditional sailboat festival, Festa Forske Pulene, which should add a little more romance to the occasion. Add to that the tunes of the legendary Rade Solaja, and it makes for an excellent evening of quality wine and company.

The Hvar Wine Association has not yet published the starting time, but it is usually 21:00, but check their Facebook page for the latest information

Veliki Plavac Mali: The Perfect Way to Say Farewell to Summer


And so another summer on the magical island of Hvar comes to an end.

It was a hot summer, one of the hottest in living memory, perfect for a glass or two of Tomic Opolo Nobil Rose.

It was a summer full of memories, and for some there was time to reflect on another successful tourist season. Some reflect with conversation, some with photographs, and others with style, as this fan photo from the Pakleni Island of Jerolim shows. How better to take in the last rays of a great summer than with a great bottle of Dalmatian red. A fitting setting for the Tomic Veliki Plavac Mali, a wine to match the magnificent setting.
