Detailed itinerary

Dating back to the 16th century, this picturesque village has gained renown for its lavender oil production. As you cycle through its quaint streets, you’ll be greeted by lush lavender fields and striking stacks of rocks or dry walls. These formations were meticulously crafted by clearing soil from rocks, ensuring fertile ground for cultivation. Additionally, locals utilized dry walls to demarcate boundaries and create charming fences. The panoramic vista from this vantage point is nothing short of breathtaking, offering sweeping views of the Adriatic Sea and the enchanting surrounding islands.

At Lacman, we pride ourselves on using only the finest grapes to craft our organic wines. With minimal human intervention, we capture the essence of Hvar’s terroir. Enjoy our natural wines amidst the incredible view from our hillside Terrace and private Gazebo, where you can immerse yourself in the timeless energy of our ancestors. Experience the full spectrum of island colors and flavors as you savor our wines and delicacies.
