Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a quietly impressive wine region where Mediterranean influences meet rugged Balkan terrain. The sunlit valleys of Herzegovina, with their limestone soils and warm climate, produce the country’s most distinctive wines. Indigenous varieties shine here: Žilavka offers crisp, mineral-driven whites with citrus and herbal notes, while Blatina yields smooth, medium-bodied reds with gentle tannins and dark berry character. Cooler, higher-altitude vineyards bring added freshness and balance. A growing movement of boutique producers is refining quality, crafting expressive, terroir-driven wines that reflect the region’s ancient traditions and striking natural landscape.
