Participants of the PASTECHL Bar 2026 conference will this year have the opportunity to enrich their professional experience with a unique enogastronomic experience. Namely, in the same period and at the same location – the Hotel Princess in Bar – the second edition of the prestigious wine festival deWINE fest will be held, creating a natural synergy between the two events.
This partnership represents a fusion of science, technology and modern industrial solutions with the rich tradition of wine and gastronomy, offering conference participants additional value during their stay in Bar. Through this collaboration, PASTECHL and deWINE fest jointly contribute to the promotion of Montenegro as a destination that successfully connects knowledge, innovation and authentic local experiences.
deWINE fest, which will be held on April 25, 2026, will gather more than 70 exhibitors and wine brands, as well as distilleries and food producers, providing a comprehensive insight into the contemporary wine and gastronomic scene of the region. A special emphasis will be placed on indigenous varieties such as Vranac, Kratošija and Žižak, which represent an important part of the identity of Montenegrin viticulture.
During the first part of the day, the festival will be dedicated to professionals through a B2B segment, where representatives of the HoReCa sector will have the opportunity to establish contacts, taste wines and participate in professional content. In the later part of the day, the festival opens to the general public, offering a relaxed atmosphere for socializing, exchange of experiences and enjoyment in top-quality wines and gastronomy.
For PASTECHL conference participants, this represents an exceptional opportunity to, in addition to the professional program, experience the authentic wine culture of the region, expand their network of contacts and be part of a broader event that connects different industries and communities.
