Welcome to Podgorica 08 – 10.07.2019

Montenegro stands on the edge between the east and the west. Different civilizations

crashing and colliding have left the most beautiful marks between the wrinkled mountainous

face of this fascinating country. Roman floor mosaics, Illyrian gray castles, Venetian stony walls,

vibrantly painted Orthodox monasteries, ornamental Catholic churches, modest and

minimalistic mosque minarets and plane socialist style buildings will tell you about

Montenegrin rich cultural history. Myriad powers fought over these lands and that is why the

locals are tall and strong, their eyes are of different shades of all colors, and their welcoming

hug is warm and brotherly. Those looking for a multicultural European history are more than

welcome to Montenegro.

Company 13. Jul – Plantaže

Ćemovsko polje – most of the wine production takes place in this basement. It’s has brand

new equipment and the latest global trends in production and technology are applied right

here.

Šipčanik, a majestic wine cellar and former military airport, has been transformed into an

impressive space for aging wine, located in the heart of the vineyard. The basement is

positioned at an average depth of over 30 meters below ground. In the form of a spiral tunnel,

356 meters long, with an average width of 13.5 meters and height of 7 meters, it extends to

over 7000 square meters. The temperature is almost constant and is between 17 and 19

degrees, while humidity is 80%. Šipčanik represents a real treasure for the Plantaže company

and all our visitors, where at any given time, two million liters of wine are left to age.
