On the morning of our last day we decided that we were going to regret if we didn't have a wine tasting experience as we have really enjoyed the few Kastelanski Crljenak (Zinfandel) bottles during our trip. Most of the places we looked at were quite far and or needed to be reserved weeks in advance, even in late September.
I eventually stumbled upon Bedalov Winery which is actually 15 minutes from where we were staying. Antea, the daughter of Jaksa who is the primary operator quickly answered our e-mail quickly by 12:30 and answered my phone call before official hours too. We picked the time within their hours of 16:00-22:00 and had an amazing 3 hour wine pairing experience. The location is relaxing and very convenient, right on the sea. I highly recommend going 1 hour before sunset. The area is covered so you can do this in all weather.
Antea hosted us when we arrived and was extremely knowledgable about the family winery, the grape history and the connection to the area. We very much enjoyed our almost 3 hours we chose to stay sampling 6 different wines and look forward to enjoying what we purchased when we are back home this afternoon!

This is a must visit for anyone visiting greater Split! Absolutely spectacular views with even better wines. The Bedalov family is making 4 generations of excellent vintages that any wine drinker (from sav blanc to zin) can enjoy. Between the two of us honeymooners, we had the Traditional Mix and the Summer Lights flights and were floored by both the quality and wonderful flavor journey these wines took us on. Also the cocktail at the end of the Summer Flights was also delicious and tasty. Light, a touch of sweet, and very refreshing! The food pairings were equally delicious and we felt it was great value for the price. Vinka was kind, articulate, and very knowledgeable of the wines and the history of Croatian wine making and wineries. All to boot, they grow wine the right way with no chemicals and completely organic. Plots in Croatia are mixed and not mono-species which means healthier plants and more ecological balancing compared to monoculture plots requiring lots of pest spraying. Wow.

Very high quality wine, presented with appropriately paired food for a tasting. Each wine was intrinsically explained by a very knowledgable hostess (heiress to the vineyard) and we learnt so much and tasted so much. We inadvertently left with a case and intend to order more from abroad - cannot recommend enough!

Had a wonderful tasting with Vinka this evening. We took the tricolour package and we really enjoyed the wines and the food pairings. Having taken part in wine tastings in other countries Vinkas knowledge, enthusiasm, description and knowledge of the wines is way above any other tastings I have done. I added on another wine I wanted to try and without hesitation, she gave the history and description. It has been a lovely evening with great wines produced by the fourth generation of the family. We are now planning to go back again before we leave on Saturday. Definitely worth going to. Thank you Vinka. Jean

As a part of a tour, we stopped in and tasted three of their organic wines paired with small crostini starting with a white and two reds including the parent of the Zinfandel varietal. The tasting room is run by the 4 daughters (5th generation family biz) and the explain all a out the wines, the food and the genetic origins of Zinfandel from Croatia. There shady tasting room just steps from the Adriatic is the perfect spot to while away a sunny afternoon.
Highly recommended

Our wine tasting experience at Bedalov Winery was one of the best we've ever had! The winery's stunning location right on the water made it easy to find and provided a beautiful setting. Antea, one of the daughters, gave us an engaging and informative introduction to the family wines, which was fantastic.
We tasted a variety of wines, each paired with delicious finger foods. The calm and relaxing atmosphere added to the enjoyment, and we ended up filling a suitcase with wines to take home. Highly recommended!

Me and my wife made a lovely visit to the Bedalov Winery and we can highly recommend it. Relaxed atmosphere right at the sea side. Wine pairing with delicious snack dishes and our hostess Antea gave us a really good insight into wine farming and the history of their winery and their production. Easy to reach with a bus from Split.

Was an absolutely excellent experience. From our first contact Antea could not have been more helpful. We all did a 3 wine tasting, ladies had white gents had red, which was great, the knowledge and passion for the winery and the family history is apparent right from the start. The wines were lovely, paired so well with a selection of tapas in a beautiful location. I would highly recommend a visit. Thank you

This was a lovely quiet romantic spot on the waterfront in Kastel Kambelovac. We took the 3 course wine tasting with accompanying finger foods. Everything was absolutely delicious and our host Antea was very pleasant and knowledgable. I loved listening to the history of the wine I was about to drink. I am actually not much of a wine drinker myself but it was all delicious and we ended up buying a few bottles to take home for our friends and family. 10/10 would recommend.

My wife and I booked via email when we arrived in Croatia. Antea's response was swift and informative. We were shown great flexibility in terms of timings.
On arriving for our tasting, we were warmly greeted by Antea, whose English was excellent. Each wine tasting was presented with most excellent Tapas type dishes, which were thoughtfully paired with the equally excellent wines. Antea then proceeded to share her passion and knowledge for each wine. The pride and love for her families vineyard was clear to see and added to our experience. We left with a great memory and four bottles of excellent wine. Please do yourself a favour and book this experience!

Hello,
We are a family of 3. Would like to visit the location but not necessarily for wine tasting rather than have a bite and enjoy the view, purchase some wine and hang out. Is this possible?
Thanks
