Abstract
This article affords a study of wine-related terms used in the central part of the Pelješac Peninsula, particularly in the major grape-growing regions of Kuna, Pijavičino and Potomje. First analysed are the dialectal features of the Pelješac area, with special emphasis on word accentuation. The body includes lexemes related to cultivation, making and storage of wine. The author points to the importance of accurate recording and description of the meaning of each word. The rich linguistic heritage of the area under study is illustrated with several examples of vinicultural and enological terms.
