Travel 30 km upriver to the hilltop town of Ilok for an exclusive private tasting at Iločki Podrumi, Croatia's most historic winery — its Traminac white was served at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
What to expect
Iločki Podrumi's vaulted stone cellars date to the 15th century and sit beneath a Franciscan monastery and medieval fortress on a dramatic promontory above the Danube. Your private host guides you through ageing barrels of Graševina and the famed Traminac, sharing the extraordinary story of how the winery's stock was hidden from occupying forces during WWII. The tasting concludes on a terrace overlooking vineyards and the river — Danube views, ancient wine, and living history.
Good to know
Ilok is approx. 30 km from Vukovar pier — arrange private car transfer (approx. EUR 40–60 return). Allow 2.5–3 hours total. Pre-book your private tasting directly via the winery website or by email. Check all-aboard time carefully.
