Dive beneath the sea where Edivo wines are aged underwater and sample several of these unusual products once you resurface. The boutique wines are aged in glass bottles contained in clay amphoras that are submerged underwater for nearly two years. You will view this unique wine cellar by diving to a depth of up to 80 feet just off the coast of Drace, a village on the Peljesac Peninsula. You will see the encrusted amphoras sitting upright in metal cages on the floor of the sea and lying on their sides in the hull of a shipwreck. The process of aging in this manner – which Edivo calls the Sea Mystery – produces some of the world’s most unique wines. You will sample several of them back on shore at the Edivo wine bar. You may be served a sweet red made from native Plavac Mali grapes and a semi-dry white blend from grapes grown in three different regions of Croatia.
