In the valley which is from ancient times known for growing vines and wine production, in the heart of old Montenegro, there is a special story from village of Beri, on the slopes of region Ljesanska nahija. This is the story of the Vukicevic family, which from a hobby became an obsession with making drinks whicha are filled with the finest grapes, but also with great love. The first records of this winery date back to 1989, when first vineyards were planted, while the current capacity is 18,000 vines, spread over 4 Ha, on which high-quality grape varieties are planted. The tradition of wine making, from grapes from their own vineyards, is maintained by two brothers - two wolves, as a symbol and trademark of the winery. In addition to the production hall and wine aging area, the winery also has a tasting room within which, in addition to wine and brandy tasting, it also offers local traditional specialties.

The Šipčanik winery is inside of a Yugoslavia era aircraft hangar that was partially destroyed by the NATO bombing in 1999. From 1999 to 2005 this building was left empty. The next year, the major winery of Podgorica, took over this place. Plantaže which is the largest single site vineyard in Europe turned this former aircraft hanger into Sipcanik winery. We made reservations in advance, but still needed to tell the people what we wanted when we got there. This was not an issue though as we were able to get the tour we wanted and were the only guest in the wine cellar. We booked an hour long tour that cost us 17 Euros a piece. Our Sommelier, Jovana, did a fantastic job. She showed us the comparison of the city to all of the vineyards of Plantaže on a model that they had inside. She also gave us a tour around the cellar to show us the oak barrels and their innox containers for storing wine. She explained to us the aging process behind wine and how the climate and soil of Podgorica allows them to grow their wine grapes all year long. She also showed us how to properly hold a wine glass and look at its color against a white surface. She showed us the proper way to smell the wine and try to guess what kinds of fruits are in it. They also provided goat cheese, cow cheese, bread and their own olive oil to pair with he 5 wines we sampled.
