Vinarija je dugi niz godina djelovala u okviru tadašnje tvrtke Hepok, koja je okupljala vinarije s područja mostarskog vinogorja. Godine 1996. slijedi potpuna privatizacija pogona,simbolizirajući na taj način ne samo početak obnove devastiranog vinogorja dubravske visora- vni nego i vjeru u kvalitetu grožđa i vinovog podneblja. Vinarija se prilagođava novim tržišnim okolnostima, a godine 2007. ulazi u strateško partnerstvo s tvrtkom MCI d.o.o. Široki Brijeg, čime dodatno pojačava svoju prisutnost na području Bosne i Hercegovine. Osim na domaće tržište, vinarija VINA ZADRO d.o.o. Čapljina danas svoje proizvode izvozi na tržište čitave regije i Europe.

  • Vinski Kultivari Vinove Loze U Hercegovini
    glasnik zaštite bilja 61 godina Rotim, N.1, M. Gašpar1,I. Perić1 Pregledni stručni rad Vinski kultivari vinove loze u Hercegovini Sažetak Prema povijesnim podatcima vinova loza se na području Hercegovine uzgajala i u vrijeme starih Ilira, odno- sno plemena Daorsa. Danas se prema procjenama u BiH nalazi oko 4.000 hektara pod vinovom lozom. U mnoštvu vinskih kultivara lokalnog sortimenta svojom kakvoćom izdvojili su se kultivari Žilavka i Blatina. Uz Žilavku se u hercegovačkim nasadima vinove loze uzgajaju prateće sorte Bena, Krkošija i Dobrogostina, a uz Blatinu autohtoni kultivar Trnjak, kao i poznati svjetski kultivari Vranac, Merlot i Alicante Bouschet. U razdo- blju nakon Domovinskog rata na području Hercegovine podižu se i nasadi vinove loze u kojima su zastupljeni i ostali, cijenjeni kultivari kao što su Syrah, Chardonnay, Cabernet sauvignon, Souvignon blanc, Muscat otto- nel, Graševina i brojni drugi. Ključne riječi: vinova loza, područje Hercegovine, kultivari Žilavka i Blatina Uvod Vinova loza je najznačajnija i jedna od najzastupljenijih kultura u poljoprivrednoj proiz- vodnji Hercegovine. U Bosni i Hercegovini preko 95 % površina pod vinovom lozom na- lazi se upravo u južnim krajevima Hercegovine. Zbog povoljnih agroekoloških odnosno klimatskih i zemljišnih uvjeta područje Hercegovine je izrazito pogodno za uzgoj vinove loze i na temelju klimatskih elemenata ovaj rajon je svrstan u zonu C2. Hercegovački vino- gradarski tereni se nalaze na nadmorskoj visini od 8 do 650 m. U pogledu konfiguracije lo- kaliteti za uzgoj vinove loze su različiti. Ima ih na ravnim položajima u dolini rijeke Neretve, na potezu od Mostara do Gabele (općina Čapljina), i na uzvišenim platoima Brotnja (općina Čitluk) i Dubrava (područje između općina Čapljina i Stolac).

Bosnia-Herzegovina (B-H) remains one of the most underdeveloped countries on the European Continent [1] yet it holds great potential as a tourist destination for outdoor adventurers, history enthusiasts, and now, wine connoisseurs. The southern part of this merged nation has always been an area of wine production, but the industry has been slow to develop into a net exporter of its wines. The author and many of the industry’s supporters believe that it would be more lucrative to follow in the footsteps of its western neighbor, Croatia, and develop the wine industry through wine tourism. Utilizing historical data, interviews, analysis of governmental statistics, review of the literature and finally a SWOT analysis, this paper suggests changes and expenditures required for Bosnia- Herzegovina to become a successful wine tourism destination. It is hoped that the suggestions made herein will direct further discussions if not actions in that direction. 1 Introduction: The History of Wine Making in Bosnia-Herzegovina Bosnia-Herzegovina’s history of wine making has flourished and waned over the centuries.

  • Wine Product Brief Bosnia and Herzegovina
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 4/5/2017 GAIN Report Number: BK1704 Bosnia and Herzegovina Post: Sarajevo Wine Product Brief Report Categories: Product Brief Wine Approved By: Fred Giles Prepared By: Sanela Stanojcic Report Highlights: Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) imports around one third of the wine consumed domestically (2016 import value $15.2 million), mostly from its neighbors Croatia, Serbia and Macedonia. The local wine production of nearly 20,000 hectoliters (hl) is generally located in the Herzegovina region. Per capita consumption of wine is estimated at seven liters (l), which is low when compared to other European countries (30 – 50 l), but has been constantly growing. Low-priced wines are consumed more due to low disposable income. Despite the struggling economy and weak consumer purchasing power, BiH consumers are increasingly shifting from beer to wine. Both importers and consumers have shown strong interest for U.S. wines. General Information: SECTION I. MARKET OVERVIEW Bosnia and Herzegovina’s (BiH) wine production is estimated at 20 million liters (l), and consumption at 25.5 million liters. Vineyard area has been constantly growing and in 2015 was estimated at 3,800 hectares (ha) with a total yield of approximately 34,000 tons (t). Grapes and wine are mostly produced in the southern part of the country, in the Herzegovina region, an area with favorable climate and a long history of wine production. The most famous local varieties/wines are Zilavka (a white wine) and Blatina (a red wine), which are ideal for growing in the climatic and geographic conditions in BiH.
