Traditional Wine Festival called “Festival vin Sempas” is the two-day festival which offers a pleasant atmosphere with domestic, domesticated and indigenous varieties. More than 60 wine producers from all three Slovenian wine regions and neighboring countries are presented. Wineries from Vipava Valley dominated. Darja Zemljic, Slovenian wine journalist said “global wine made in Vipava Valley in the village scene” – I would not be able to agree more.
