Orange Wine Tasting with a Certified Sommelier
Discover one of Slovenia’s most remarkable wine traditions.
Slovenia has quietly become one of the world’s leading destinations for orange wine. Crafted using ancient skin-contact winemaking techniques, these wines reveal remarkable texture, depth and character unlike almost anything else in the world of wine.
During this relaxed, sommelier-led tasting, you’ll discover five carefully selected orange wines from independent Slovenian winemakers while exploring the history, craftsmanship and traditions behind this distinctive style. From delicate and elegant to bold and complex, each wine tells a different story of its vineyard, its maker and Slovenia’s rich winemaking heritage.
Whether it’s your first orange wine or your fiftieth, every glass offers a new perspective on one of Europe’s oldest and most exciting wine traditions.
