Fourth Portonovi Wine Night Held with Natali Dizdar

The fourth edition of Portonovi Wine Night, organized by Portonovi and Compania De Vinos, was held last night and brought together numerous wineries from the region, Europe, and Montenegro. The Croatian pop singer Natali Dizdar made the atmosphere as beautiful as possible.

According to the organizer, Željko Uljarević, the wine events they organize during the summer are always demanding because, as he said, summer is the period when all winegrowers prepare for the harvest. As he said, they tried to gather many of them and pointed out that the best ones gathered in Portonovi.

"There are nearly 50 wineries here tonight, and on average, each presents about seven types of wine. I think that all wine lovers will find this a really diverse evening, where they will have the opportunity to try different varieties. Montenegrin brands are definitely the most numerous, followed by Serbia, Croatia, Italy, Slovenia, Spain, and Italy," he said.

Kovačević Winery from Fruška Gora has been nurturing and spreading the wine culture in Serbia for over 30 years. As stated by the manager Branislav Ćaćić, their wines are very popular in Montenegro and already have their customers.

"We are very well represented, especially on the coast, but it's always good to present ourselves again, especially in a place like Portonovi Resort. We always have some novelties, and this is a great opportunity to present them. Tonight, we presented Sauvignon and Chardonnay white organic wines from our production here, two sparkling wines, Traminac, which is always interesting to the audience", he said.

Natali Dizdar did not hide her enthusiasm for the beauties of the Portonovi Resort. As she pointed out, the previous period was very busy for her, and she said that after the performance in Montenegro, she is going on a well-deserved rest.

"After the five songs that came out last year in October, I will present my new single called "Zadnji dan ljeta," I am really looking forward to the premiere of that song because we have been working on it for a long time. This whole summer tour announces exactly those novelties, and after a short rest, we are going on tour with a new single", she said.

Natali pointed out that she always has good communication with the Montenegrin audience and that at the concert, she sang songs from her first albums, as well as some that are not hers but which she likes to perform and listen to privately. Although at the beginning of her career, she was characterized as a non-commercial artist whose songs would not have such an echo with the audience, Natali has become a favorite of pop lovers throughout the region. She says consistency, dedication, and talent played a significant role in that.

"In the previous period, we didn't come to Montenegro that often, so I'm looking forward to being here again. After Portonovi, I'm going to Podgorica. We haven't played there for a long time, but I'm really looking forward to these gatherings," she said.
