Wine so good we forgot about the rain! - We visited Winery Garnet in the middle of a terrible storm. Although this meant we didn't quite get the idyllic setting we were picturing, it did not dampen our experience! Mishko (sorry if I spelt it incorrectly) was a very welcoming and accommodating host - he gave us lots of information about the family wines and let us enjoy at our own pace. We spent a few hours tasting the various wines and spirits, and enjoying the delicious food we were given to share. The amount of food and liquor exceeded our expectations, and we truly had a fantastic afternoon, despite rain gushing everywhere and hammering on the terrace roof! I must mention Maja who I liaised with in detail prior to the tasting - she was extremely friendly and proactive in making arrangements for us, to ensure we could still enjoy our experience despite the storm. A big thank you!

An amazing and informative afternoon high in the mountains of Montenegro - A truly unique experience expertly hosted by the very knowledgeable and passionate owner Misko.
We spent a very happy couple of hours sampling delicious wines and liquors accompanied by various cheeses and other homemade snacks.
We would thoroughly recommend this great value experience to anyone visiting Montenegro.

Garnet Winery - wine tasting - Just came back from a wine tasting at Garnet. What a wonderful experience! Misko was very kind and humble about his products, which was some of the best I have ever tried. From my previous wine tasting experience in southern Europe, this is definitely one of the top. I like how all products shows elegance and thoughts behind the production. Everything from the location, to the host to the presentation is really low key. The tasting is in some unpolished environments, which makes it more romantic and also easy to have a nice chat with others. The location is hidden, but google maps will show you the way. Very high recommendations from Copenhagen.

Excellent wine tasting! - Thank you so much for an excellent wine tasting paired with local delicacies in a very plesant environment. The owner was very interesting to listen to. He told us a lot about the wine making and the history of the old village. I tought the most exciting wine was the natural wine with a fantastic honey coulor and many flavors .We really recommend this tour, one of the best we have had.

Thank you for this great experience! - This was BY FAR the highlight of our trip.
Driving there was not very hard and once we arrived the scenery was amazing. It is in a small town with amazing surroundings. When we were there we realised that we were the only ones who booked it for that hour, well even though we were excited to socialize, it was like our own private wine tasting so we call it luck. Also we got to know the family who are doing the tasting and they were amazing people. Lovely wine, lovely food, lovely family, nothing can be any better. Also they were very informative about the wines and loved hearing their stories. Would definitely recommend and would love to visit again. We ended up buying a bottle of rose wine which tastes amazing. 💕
PROS: You can play football with their son.
CONS: He would probably beat you at it 😂
