About Godinje

Godinje, in Crmnica, belongs to a wine-growing tradition more than 500 years old. First recorded in the 13th century, with traces of the 15th-century Balšić dynasty, it is one of the best-preserved historic villages in the country: compact stone houses with vaulted cellars and walls up to a metre thick, threshing floors and mills. Our advice: taste Crmnica wine at a family cellar.
