Established in 397 BC, the ancient Greek colony of Issa on the eastern Adriatic coast was renowned for producing the finest wine, as mentioned by Greek chronicler Agarthid. Centuries later in 17th century, our ancestors settled on the Croatian island of Vis, delving into vine cultivation. Today, Vislander has emerged as the largest family winery on Vis. It stands apart as the sole producer of single vineyard Plavac (25 ha) and offers various styles of Vugava (12 ha) from a state-of-the-art winery that now carries the rebranded name Vislander. Our wines are a timeless reminder that wine is a celebration of life itself.

Jnr who believe that Eger is one of the most
exciting wine regions of Hungary. They farm 45 hectares across 9 plots, growing as many as 20
varieties, and focus on blends that showcase the
terroir – especially in their exciting new wave
premium Bikavér reds that show that this
legendary wine can be world-class (they won Decanter Bestin Show in 2021). They say, “We are grateful that we have the chance to grow grapes here. We would like to create terroir-specific, characterful wines based on
tradition with modern quality winemaking. Old
local varieties, like Olaszrizling, Hárslevelű,
Furmint, Kadarka and Kékfrankos take priority here. We seek to know more about our terroirs and
parcels, to improve our cultivation....and put our heart and soul into understanding the essence of our passion.”
