Slovenian wines are one of the best wines in Central European area. On such a small area grow more than 40.000 winaries that produce about 26 million gallons of wine each year, mostly premium ones. Soon the grape juice is going to be fermented and it will turn into wine, this thousands of years old drink.

In Slovenia this is called Martinovo and happens each year on 11th of November. Slovenian people celebrate this holiday on public places where they meet to taste wines from different producers.

The fact that most of slovenian wine is consumed inside the country tells us that Slovenian people developed an interesting cultural experience of producing, tasting and sharing wine.
