Boris Lisjak Winery

Reviewed By 915gerrit - Redmond, United States

Our tour group stopped here on a lovely day in crush season. Winemaker Boris took time from his busy crush day to take us on a tour of this beautiful, time-honored winery. A lovely and knowledgeable granddaughter, 8th generation in this family of winemakers!, presented our lovely lunch and kept us informed of each wine we enjoyed. I highly recommend a stop here, and the delicious lunch is a wonderful bonus, if you can arrange it. I purchased 3 of the Cabernet Sauvignon wines, one to take home to Washington to one of my favorite winemakers. Cheers!

Gaube estate is known by wine production for several years and 3 family generations. The estate is located in a wonderful špičnik area, very near famous heart shaped road in the vineyards. The house is surrounded by nice yard where you can enjoy the view to vineyards and wonderful nature. In tja last years the family developed the culinary services offered to the guests with excelent wines. In 2020 they were selected in 10 best tourist farm estetes in slovenia and after this visit we saw that it was more than deserved. You choose 3 or 4 course menu with choice of the main dish with fish or meat. All dishes were served in beautiful handmade pilates and tasted real good. We were able to choose several desserts and we tried everything. You could not decide which one was the best because all of the desserts were simpy great. Highly recommended for a superior culinary experience in beautiful place where family "touch" can be felt every minute of your visit.

We really enjoyed our wine tasting today. Irina, the owner of the vineyard, did an amazing job explaining the different wines they produce and sell. The homemade snacks were just delicious and together with the stories she told made an unforgettable experience. She even prepared some homemade juice for our kids. Outstanding hospitality! Highly recomended!!!

Human Fish Brewery

Reviewed By NK10ish - Ljubljana, Slovenia

Vrhnika is a small town with little bars and cafes, hence we all very much appreciate Human Fish brewery! Their terrace is cozy and so is inside. The staff is really friendly and beers are delicious. If unsure which beer to drink, definitely ask for the advice of the staff, as they know a lot about beers. I tried Combat Wombat, Sipa and one more beer (cannot remember the name) and they were all great.

Vino Zorz

The growing and production of wine have been present in the Žorž family from Slap since 1696 and they are a reminder of their tradition, nowadays supported by the modern touch in the art of wine making. With a production of wine extending on an area of nearly 30 acres, the Žorž farm is one of the largest familly owned winery in the Vipava Valley. Žorž vineyards are sowed with red grapes varieties, such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Barbera, as well as white grape varieties Pinot Gris, Sauvignon, Muscat Blanc, Malvasia, Riesling, as well as local varieties Zelen and Pinela. The Žorž family uses modern equipment with which they produce an astonishing variety of top-notch wines. The key to their exquisite wines and excellent success lies in the accomplished vision and common work of the Žorž generations. In recent years, the wine making part has been already passed to the youngest generation who seeks new opportunities in the combination of their professional knowledge and the experience of their fathers. In the year of 2015, cellar Žorž became also biological, which proves that we are following the newest and the best trends in wine producing. The Žorž farm and wine cellar offers you bottled wines which will convince you with the nobleness of flavor, aroma and color. Taste them on various occasions alongside a gourmet dish and enjoy the wine in a completely new way. In the atrium of wine cellar Žorž you can make a wish in the oldest farm fountain in Slovenia and start an unforgetable journey throught our wine cellar. The doors to the Žorž farm and wine cellar are always open for you!

Aside from a great winetasting (ditto everything other reviewers have said), we also stayed in their newly designed rooms for 2 nights. Anja Zorz welcomed us to their family run winery and with great pride, explained more about Slap and the Vipava Valley. In addition to sampling Zorz wines, she gave us great recommendations for other wineries to visit (and called to organize), as well as fabulous dinner recommendations. Her husband/winemaker Jerne and brother-in-law Andre added to our very personalized and enthusiastic interactions throughout our stay. The rooms were surprisingly modern and we were very happy to have bar soap, body lotion and shampoo (not always provided in Slovenia/Croatia). Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. My favorite place so far in our trip, I loved the interaction with and the passion of the locals!!
