About this experience
Our wine tasting takes place in a historic 1906 wine cellar overlooking Lake Bled—an intimate, atmospheric setting you won’t find anywhere else nearby. Led by Danijel Galjot, a skilled sommelier and storyteller, each tasting is more than sipping wine—it’s a journey through Slovenia’s diverse terroirs, rare grapes, and deep traditions.
What makes us unique is our focus on Slovenian wines only—including many indigenous varieties rarely found elsewhere. Whether you’re new to wine or a collector, our tastings are designed to educate, surprise, and inspire with food pairings, WSET-based techniques, and stories from local winemakers.
Small group sizes ensure a relaxed, engaging vibe—and with over 200 Slovenian wines in our cellar, every visit is different. It’s not just a tasting—it’s a cultural deep dive into the world of Slovenian wine, right above one of Europe’s most iconic lakes.
