Great evening. Nice small number, there were 9 of us. Host very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable about regions, history and production of wines. The bread and nibbles were a nice touch. Wasn’t a rushed evening at all and 7 quality wines to try!
unique wine tasting venu in a castle. introduction to Slovenian Wines and Wine regions. knowledgeable and informative host and tasty snacks.
an informative and delivious introduction to Slovenian Wines. Atmospheric wine cellar at Ljubljana Castle and a knoledgable host made for a great session.
Wonderful experience!!! I wasn't excited about the location (I thought within the castle might be touristy) but the winery room was beautiful, classy and very well presented.
We were very disappointed with this wine tasting, which involved seven Slovenian wines, held in a wine bar in the castle that dominates central Ljubljana. The wines were of varying quality (there were a couple of very poor wines) and none were outstanding. There was no written information provided about the wines other than an extremely rudimentary tasting sheet. The tutor running the tasting was fairly knowledgeable but there was no introductory overview of winemaking in Slovenia and little in the way of visual information. The accompanying food was very limited - essentially some cheese, bread, and dried fruit. Although advertised as lasting two hours, the tasting was actually concluded in around one hour twenty minutes, whereupon we were told that we could taste another two wines for fifteen Euros. Having already paid fifty five Euros for the tasting we declined. We were encouraged to leave reviews of the tasting and the tasting sheet said that a 10% discount was given to people that left reviews. Over the years, I have enjoyed well over a hundred wine tastings at wine shops, bars and wineries around the world and this was one of the poorest. I cannot recommend it to fellow travellers.
Thank you for the detailed and honest feedback. We're genuinely sorry this didn't meet the standard we set for ourselves or the expectations you rightly brought to it. The points you raise — about the depth of the tasting notes, the educational context, the food, and the duration — are all taken on board. Some of these reflect real gaps we are working to address; others we'll be looking into based on your account. We'd also note that the discount-for-reviews practice mentioned on the sheet is something we have stepped back from — we want every review to be freely given. Your experience as a seasoned taster makes this feedback particularly valuable, even if it's hard to hear. We hope Slovenia's wine scene gets another chance to impress you. Best regards, Luka
A wonderful hour and a half journey through Slovenian wine. The setting at the castle was perfect and the cheese board that accompanied our 7 wines was generous. I'd highly recommend this experience as part of a trip to Ljubljana.
