A sanctuary for gourmands Emporia’s Wine and Dine experience is nothing short of world-class. The fine dining restaurant, housed within the hotel, goes beyond offering a meal; it promises a culinary journey. The kitchen blends modern culinary techniques with the ancient traditions of the region, creating dishes that are a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Each dish is carefully crafted to reflect the
abundance of fresh, local ingredients that Herzegovina is known for. Whether it’s sun- kissed courgettes, fresh Adriatic tuna tartare or slow-roasted veal with a modern twist, the dishes feel like art, reflecting the skill and creativity of Emporia’s chefs.
A paradise for wine enthusiasts Paired with these culinary creations is an exceptional wine selection from the hotel’s own vineyard. Located beneath the resort, Emporia’s winery has earned international acclaim with numerous prestigious awards. These accolades
include eight Decanter World Wine Awards and an American double gold for its white wines, positioning the Emporia Winery among the elite in the world of fine wines. The varieties produced here are a celebration of the region’s deep viticultural heritage, with modern twists on traditional varieties. Emporia’s signature wine, the Deep Red Cuvée,
stands out as a prime example of its craftsmanship. This rich and bold wine is a harmonious blend of cabernet sauvignon, syrah and merlot, alongside trnjak, an indigenous local grape. The Deep Red Cuvee is a reflection of Herzegovina itself, full of character, history and depth. The hotel’s wine-tasting experiences let guests
savour these wines in the place where they were created, making the connection between land and glass tangible. The history behind the Emporia Winery only adds to the allure. Wine production in the region dates back centuries and the estate carries forward this tradition with a modern flair. The first wine station and wine school in the
region were established in 1866, during the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria. The estate’s vineyards, known as the Imperial Vineyards, continue to produce wines of the highest quality, combining centuries-old techniques with modern technology. This rich historical background gives each glass of wine a story.
A haven for outdoor adventures The hotel also offers a variety of outdoor activities that allow visitors to engage with the stunning natural surroundings. Whether it’s a wine-tasting tour through the estate’s vineyards, a relaxing day by the beautiful swimming pool overlooking the valley or an adventure-filled outing to nearby cultural and historical sites, the options for exploration are endless. Visitors can step back in time with a trip to the
UNESCO-listed Stari Most — the historic bridge in the heart of Mostar — or explore the nearby Marian shrine of Medjugorje, which draws millions of pilgrims annually. Travellers can explore charming cobblestone streets, traditional bazaars and
historic mosques, all while experiencing the unique blend of Ottoman and Mediterranean influences that define the valley. The Valley of Mostar offers not only breathtaking views but also a deep sense of history and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that captivates all who visit. Herzegovina also offers hiking, zip-lining and kayaking opportunities, while the Kravica Waterfalls provide a refreshing oasis just a short drive from the hotel. The region’s natural beauty and rich cultural heritage make Emporia not just a hotel but a gateway to unforgettable experiences.
The perfect place for special events Emporia Wine and Dine Boutique Resort also serves as the perfect venue for special events, photoshoots and intimate gatherings, thanks to its award- winning wines, creative cuisine and stunning natural setting — including the impressive sunsets from the west-facing infinity pool. As night falls and the sky comes alive with mesmerising colours, this one-of-a-kind resort transforms into a truly cinematic setting.
