The Volarevic winery is a family winery founded on the initiative of a father and four sons, who decided that a field of quartz, the slope beside the sea in the bay opposite the Pelješac peninsula is ideal for planting vines. They believe to create a tradition of wanting to prove how far the Plavac mali variety can go.
The Komarna winegrowing area began planting its first grapes in the year 2008, while in April 2013 it received its official designation as an appellation. The Komarna winegrowing area is located in South Dalmatia in the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, on the road from Split to Dubrovnik overlooking the Adriatic Sea. It is a relatively young winegrowing area covering 82 hectares of vineyards planted by seven up and coming producers. The soil of this region is skeletal, made up mostly of limestone and very little earth, with an incline of up to 30%, with vineyards positioned from 250m above sea level and continuing all the way down to the sea. The vineyards face south and southwest and, and owing to their unique location all producers are certified by the EU for organic production. The varieties planted in the vineyards contain 92% of indigenous Dalmatian varieties: Plavac Mali, Pošip, Tribidrag, Maraština and Babic, while the rest are international varieties (Syrah, Chardonnay, Tempranillo, Cabernet, Viognier).
