Indijan Winery
About winery
Indijan Winery, located in Potomje on the Pelješac Peninsula, is a family-run winery with a long tradition dating back to 1975, when it was founded by the grandfather—the first private winemaker on Pelješac. The name “Indijan” originates from a family nickname tied to a legend about ancestors who drowned in the Indian Ocean.
In 2016, the winery embraced a new era, introducing modern technological methods, new labels, and aging wines in wooden barrels. Their vineyards are located in the prestigious Dingač region, combining young vines with 45-year-old ones. Dedicated to the indigenous variety Plavac Mali, they offer four labels on the market: Dingač Barrique, Dingač Prestige, Plavac Mali, and Postup.
