Awards for the best wine made in Crmnica and the best wine on Fair in Montenegro

Hi everyone!I haven't write blog posts since September 2013! Sorry for that, I hope this year I'll be more active. And, let's start with this sneak a peek :

First of all, I have a surprise for you guys (it's not surprise for us at all!) and some news too.I guess many of you heard or have been on Festival of wine and bleak in Virpazar, on Skadar Lake? If you weren't, you must go! It's every year in December, you have opportunity to taste all of wines, brandy, fish, olives and other food from Montenegro, Serbia or Macedonia for two days. Both days we have there famous singers, groups and cultural and educative programs. And also, the competition for best wines and producers. And guess what? Our winery won first places in each category! We've got golden cup for the best wine on Festival in 2013., golden medal for best wine made in Crmnica in 2013. and golden medal for the best wine produced in that year. Of course, all of our wines were tasted and rated by special jury composed of wine experts and tasters. Now we're preparing for some new competitions on International level, but more about it in next posts. I've planed to put some photos of medals, but I realized I don't have any in this computer and you can find more info on our facebook page, I'm more active there. P.S. Don't forget to like and share us! :)

New wine called KRIN

When you're registering your wine, to Ministry of Agriculture, to put the wine in sell and get all the certificates for it, you should give a name to the wine, so people can recognize it. We decided to be KRIN. Here goes the story :

Our relatives from the past and our ancestors are historical well known family Buća. They had their own Palace in Kotor. The Buća Palace is located on Trg od Brasna. It was built for the Buca family, one of the most influential families in the city, whose members included ambassadors and court officials. Much of its original Gothic style was lost after its reconstruction following the 1667 earthquake. Many members of this family were soldiers of King Valov, and for their courage and selfless were given and honored with coat of arms, with symbol of Crin. On Palace you can still see that symbol.

We decided to give the name to our new wine - KRIN. That is the top-level dry wine, sort Vranac - originally from Montenegro, of dark red colour with purple tones. This wine tastes like burned oak-tree and there is a flavor of sweet ripe raspberries and fresh cranberries. From oak trees in most famous French forest, were made barrique vessels, in which this wine is maturing, then kept in bottles under strictly  controlled conditions. It goes good with all red meat, spiced and greasily, with all meats made of wild animals, ham and all fat cheese.

So, come and visit us to enjoy together in this and many other our wines, and get a taste of good life with wine produced on traditional way.

Cheers!
