OSTROG REGION RED WINE (PODOSTROSKI VRANAC)
Bjelopavlicis Wine Growing HillMontenegro
Under the Ostrog Monastery, 400 m above the sea level, one more shrine has been recently
renewed, namely the wine shrine of its capacity of 60.000 litres. We are saying renewed sincein the remote XV century, in the time of the family Crnojevic, the whole area under the
Monastery Ostrog, was widely known for its vineyards and excellent wine served in the Venetian
courts. Experience of ancestors together with state of the art technologies and most up to dateknowledge represent a combination which provides best results. Our results are high rewards for
the quality of our modern basement wines and winery received for less than two years. In most
beautiful Montenegrin vineyard, underpinned by kilometres of rock walls, in recent years, new -old Montenegrin wines have been growing. Without irrigation and synthetic components in the
vineyard, with minimum interventions on the wine, from the intact Ostrog land, one more high-
quality winePodostroski Vranac - was produced. Over 2400 sunny hours over this holy land,
provide the wine with an additional savour. The wine combines different flavours including that
of blackberry, eglantine, plum and fig. Purple colour along with Mediterranean plenitude, milddelicacy and soft acidity will fill you with pleasure. In order to fully sense savours of Podostroski
Vranac, you should serve it at 19-20 C. If it is served with some of local specialties: prut, carp,
fish soup, kastradina and other recognizable dish from your place of origin, the pleasure will beeven higher. After visiting the Monastery, this wine of its amazing exotic aroma, will fill your
soul and really invigorate you in an intact nature of the Ostrog rock with an endless view on
Bjelopavlici lowland, but will also evoke vivid images and memory on the Ostrog Monastery ifyou drink it at your homes. Apart from Vranac, different types of French wines have also been
