Montenegro is on in the Balkan peninsula and is bathed by the Adriatic Sea. Over the centuries Montenegro has been a crossroads for Mediterranean cultures, from the Romans to the Byzantines and the Slavs. You can see the influence of Roman, Byzantium and Muslim cultures in both Montenegrin art and architecture.

Montenegro also has a great variety of good quality wines and the vineyards are mostly located in the central and southern part of the country, however, many families make their own wines on a very small scale at home. The most famous wine varieties are Krstac and Vranac. Krstač is an ancient grape variety, indigenous to Serbia and Montenegro. It produces a high quality dry white wine of light yellow colour, it has a rich, harmonious bouquet and is about 12.5% alcohol. Vranac is another ancient grape and is indigenous to the Republic of Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro. Vranac is considered the most important variety of grape in Montenegro that produces a dry red wine with a unique taste and character. 

Montenegro is also home to one of the largest vineyards in Europe, Plantaže Vineyard located in Podgorica along the banks of Cijevna River.  Plantaže Vineyard grows mainly Montenegrin wines and also offers wine tasting and tours through the vineyards and cellars. To get an idea of ​​the scale of this huge vineyard, it is worth noting that the area contains 11 million vines over 2130 hectares of land!
