In the vicinity of Lake Skadar, up the Bobija hill in the municipality of Cetinje, lies the Patrimonio estate. The large countryside property is dominated by a young vineyard, planted in place of an old one just a few months ago. Next to it are a family house and a new modern wine production facility. Radosav Brnović, the owner of the estate, welcomed us.
“This is my father’s land. I was born and raised here. I learned to prune grapevines before I could read,” Radosav says with pride.
They started selling their first wine in 2004, when they registered as an agricultural holding. They story was taken to the next level last year, when they managed to produce a significantly larger amount of wine, having processed 45 tons of grapes.
