Adventures of wine and cuisine

The Vipava Valley has always been renowned for its exquisite wines. The region’s landscape and mild climate are two key reasons why the grapevine has been thriving here for almost two thousand years. The long-lasting tradition, which has been passed down from one generation to another, has helped many respected wine growers make a name for themselves beyond the borders of their homeland. You can spice up your stay with us by visiting stone cellars built deep below the ground, also called ‘hrami’ by the locals. Relax in the company of good people and toast with ‘pinela’ and ‘zelen’ – our favorite couple!

The Vipava Valley cuisine is characterized by simple dishes which were already prepared by our ancestors way back when. Home-cooked meals were always modified according to the ingredients they were able to grow themselves. Traditional dishes are also served in the best local restaurants or ‘ošterije’, as the locals call them, their chefs and cooks merely add a pinch of modernity. You can find numerous restaurants and pubs on astonishing and scenic locations or amidst the serried streets of the stone villages of the Vipava Valley. Aside from tasty dishes and wine, their owners also offer homegrown produce, fruit, herbs, syrups, jams … We definitely recommend you to acquaint yourself with the tastes of the Vipava Valley!
