It's harvest time

We Slovenians are proud of our rich tradition of viticulture.

Late summer and early autumn are the best time for wine growers to harvest the fruits of their labours. Harvest is also an opportunity for socialising, networking and preserving Slovenia's cultural heritage.

There are three winegrowing regions in Slovenia, which differ mainly in terms of location, growing conditions and climate. These factors influence the characteristics and qualities of the wines produced in each location. The three regions comprise nine wine-growing districts, namely Podravje, which includes Styria and Prekmurje, Posavje, which includes Bizeljsko-Sremič, Dolenjska and Bela Krajina, and the Littoral wine-growing region, which includes the Vipava Valley, Goriška Brda, Karst and Slovenian Istria.
