Our Wines...
Each of our wines is a story, a testament to love, freedom, resilience, and the enduring bond between our land and its people.
Location
Take the first left from Podgorica on the road to Nikšić. Follow the winding asphalt road that ascends through the hills, revealing breathtaking views of the rugged gray karst. Pass through five villages—Mokanji, Đeđezi, Braćani, Župa, and Livada—and you’ll find Bandići, a horseshoe-shaped territory where our vineyard flourishes.
Stories from the Stone
Since antiquity, through the Middle Ages and into the modern era, viticulture has been a cornerstone of Montenegrin culture. The grapevine and its wine symbolize resilience, freedom, and the unbreakable connection to this land.
So vital was the grapevine to Montenegrin life that Prince Nikola Petrović, in the mid-19th century, decreed:
"Every soldier from a region where vines can grow must plant 200 vines."
Today, Montenegrin wines carry the spirit of the past, celebrating courage, tradition, and love for the land.
