Famous wine varieties such as shipon, Laški riesling and sauvignon impress even the most demanding wine lovers. The region's vineyards thrive in fertile soil and a unique microclimate, creating exceptional wines that fit perfectly with local cuisine.
Štajerska is known for its diverse selection of sweet treats that pamper the palate. Traditional dishes such as cooked dumplings, apple strudel, gibanica, walnut potica, fruit bread, ... These sweet delights highlight the skill and creativity of local bakers.
When we offer a good shipon, the excellent one, late in autumn torn chipo, almost everyone, a slead or an ignorant drinker, enthusiastically nods. Great wine! Why is this the case, even if people try this wine for the first time in their lives, whose name is hard to get off their tongues at first?
Šipon is distinguished by its pleasant fruity smell (ripe pineapple), the stuffing of green almonds, hazelnuts, even mowed grass and seine, or maybe someone's smell even resembles olive oil and a fish floating in it!
