Velimirovic Winery is located in the Malenza village in Zagarac, 17km from Podgorica. It is home to a grape vine which is planted on four hectares and which yields about 30 tonnes of grapes each year. With fertile soil, plenty of sun, and enough rain, the quality of the wine is guaranteed.However, for this former family-owned estate to grow into a successful business over time, support was needed from the outside. Velimirovic decided to look for this within the IPARD-like grant – The Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance for Rural Development – through which the European Union and the Government of Montenegro support Montenegrin farmers.
