Wine and local produce on Krk

18 wineries, cellars and producers on Krk: Žlahtina from Vrbnik, sheep's cheese, honey, olive oil and pršut, with how to visit.

Where we'd start: Katunar Estate Winery.

Quick answers

What is Žlahtina?

Krk's own grape. It grows in the Vrbnik field, almost all of which is planted with it. Vrbnik's wineries make it as a still and a sparkling wine: the PZ Vrbnik cooperative even ages a sparkling Žlahtina on the seabed, and Gospoja makes a bottle-fermented one.

Where can I taste Žlahtina in Vrbnik?

Walk in at Gospoja's old-town tasting room (daily about 10:00–23:00, 1 April to 1 November 2026), which also pours other Vrbnik producers, or book the seven-wine tasting at Kuća vina Ivan Katunar (about EUR 27–29 in 2026). Katunar Estate on the road into the village is open until 21:00 from June to September, and Placa Šipun is the wine bar on the main square.

Can you visit a wine cellar on Krk?

Yes, in Vrbnik. At Kuća vina Ivan Katunar the cellar is under the family house; book with the family by phone, ahead in July and August. Šipun, which brings forgotten Kvarner grapes such as Sansigot and Trojišćina back into production, takes visitors by appointment only, and PZ Vrbnik arranges cellar visits if you contact it ahead with your head count and date.

What is Valomet, the sparkling wine aged under the sea?

A sparkling Žlahtina from PZ Vrbnik, the village cooperative founded in 1904, aged on the seabed off north-east Krk at about 30 m. Ask for 'Valomet Podmorski' at the harbour winery: the cooperative also sells an ordinary Valomet sparkling.

Where can I buy local cheese, olive oil and pršut on Krk?

Sheep's cheese at OPG Magriž near Kornić, which also serves farm lunches from 12:00 (2026), and at Sirana Hlam in Punat. Krk PDO olive oil from 10–30–10 in Vrh, and Krčki pršut, protected at EU level, at Kuća krčkog pršuta Žužić, also in Vrh.

Where can I buy local honey on Krk?

Honey Hill on the road between Punat and Stara Baška sells sage honey from its Krk apiary and opens at 10:00 (2026); ask which apiary a jar comes from, as some of the honeys come from the mainland. On the road to Baška, Sherry's Honey Store at Draga Bašćanska offers tastings of several honeys.

Our tips

  • Summer hours 09:00–21:00 (1 Jun-30 Sep) and 09:00–16:00 from October to May (2026).

OPG Magriž: sheep cheese farm and tasting room

Wine & produce · Lakmartin (near Kornić)

Family sheep farm of Vesna and Mirjenko Mrakovčić. They have made cheese since 1984 and grown the flock from 9 to about 150 sheep. The farm makes plain and flavoured sheep cheese (rosemary, walnut, truffle), olive oil, olives, dried figs and fig spread, and has won more than 50 awards. The on-farm Kušaona (tasting room) serves farm food, such as lamb tripe with polenta (EUR 12 in spring 2026).

Our tips

  • The Kušaona opens at 12:00 (2026). Come for a farm lunch, not just shopping.
  • Take home aged cheese and the dried-fig spread to go with it, rather than the supermarket 'Krk cheese'.
  • Magriž cheese was certified as a 'Dar iz Krka' souvenir in 2024.
  • Mare Tours sells a guided tasting here: five sheep cheeses (some aged in rosemary, sage or walnut leaves) with olives, oil, figs, fig jam and a drink. Wednesdays and Fridays at 10:00, 30–45 minutes, from EUR 15 (September 2026).

PZ Vrbnik cooperative and Valomet sea-aged sparkling

Wine & produce · Vrbnik (harbour)

The village cooperative, founded in 1904, sits at the harbour (Namori 2). Žlahtina covers almost all of the Vrbnik field, and the cooperative makes 'Zlatna Vrbnička Žlahtina'. It also makes Valomet, a sparkling Žlahtina aged on the seabed off north-east Krk at about 30 m: an unusual bottle and a good gift story. Cellar visits by arrangement; the cooperative's shop on the main square keeps different hours.

Our tips

  • Ask for 'Valomet Podmorski' (the seabed-aged bottle): the cooperative also sells ordinary Valomet sparkling and rosé.
  • For a cellar visit, contact them ahead with your head count and date, and say whether you want the production cellar or just the tasting space.
  • The cooperative also has shops in Baška and Krk Town.

Winery founded in 1995 by the Toljanić and Brusić families.

Our tips

Punat fish market

Wine & produce · Punat

Tested by us We have been here ourselves.

Punat's fish market sells the local boats' catch every morning, 06:30–12:00. It's our go-to for fresh fish. Punat's small produce market and the OPG Žagar vegetable stall (Mon–Sat 07:00–15:00) are a two-minute walk away.
