Scenic Drive to Baraka Winery & Wine Tasting

Depart the pier for a picturesque journey to Baraka Winery, a family-owned boutique estate nestled in the heart of Dalmatia near Šibenik. Dedicated to crafting terroir-driven wines, Baraka combines small-batch production with a hands-on approach to ensure exceptional quality. The philosophy here is simple yet profound: wine is meant to be shared. Guests are warmly welcomed to witness this passion firsthand during a premium tasting experience, partially conducted in the cellar, where select wines are sampled directly from the barrel.

Plastovo Village & Sladic Winery Experience

Continue through the scenic Skradin hinterland to the charming village of Plastovo, home to the Sladic family winery. Rooted in generations of tradition, the Sladic family is committed to producing wines of outstanding character using indigenous grape varieties. Their vineyards, perched on hills above Skradin and near the Krka River, benefit from a unique microclimate of cool nights and sun-drenched days, creating ideal conditions for viticulture.

The winery’s portfolio reflects the diversity of its terroir:

First Line – Elegant, fresh wines from fertile soils bordering the Krka River.

Second Line – Complex, refined wines from older vineyards on skeletal soils atop the hill.

Third Line – Powerful, full-bodied wines from rocky southern slopes, with remarkable aging potential.

Your visit culminates in a curated wine and food pairing experience, where multiple courses of traditional Dalmatian dishes, prepared with local ingredients, are expertly matched with Sladic wines—a true celebration of heritage and flavour.
