How the evening works

A wine tasting with a difference

This time, the wine tasting won’t follow the usual format. An interactive castle exploration awaits, combining hidden corners of the castle, small challenges and a tasting of selected wines.

On arrival you will receive a tasting glass and a secret map that guides you as you explore the castle rooms on your own. Your task is to find four hidden rooms, where selected wines from the renowned, multi-award-winning Jug Winery from Dobležiče await you.

But the path to the wine treasures won’t be entirely simple!

Among the ancient castle walls, various challenges will add a touch of castle mystery and adventure to your exploration.

Flavours of the Šmarje–Virštanj wine district

The evening features the wines you will discover in the four hidden rooms:

  • Blaufränkisch
  • Welschriesling
  • Riesling
  • Cuvée

For refreshment, and for anyone who prefers a non-alcoholic option, homemade apple juice and water will also be available.
