Summary: The wine tasting experience was an amazing time in a beautiful location. What really made it special was Danijel - who was extremely knowledgeable and personable. It was a conversation and we really got a feel for Slovenia’s rich wine tradition, regions and culture. We have done wine tours and tastings in the United States but never had we had such good technical information relayed in such an organic way. I don’t think we will ever drink wine the same way and we have Danijel to thank for that. It was an incredible experience and if you are in the area it would be well worth it to talk wine with Danijel and enjoy the views and delicious food and drink along the way. Every wine was a star and it was hard to pick just one favorite.

Summary: The Sommelier leading the tasting was very knowledgeable and we not only learned about Slovenian wine, but the culture as well. The pours were generous and served with a variety of delicious cheeses and bread. We tasted one rose, two whites and two reds. A very nice start to the evening in a cozy wine cellar.
