Apart from wines by Slovenian growers, the festival features some of the finest wines of Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia-Montenegro, New Zealand, Chile and Spain.
Until Saturday, the visitors were also able to enjoy culinary delicacies and an exhibition of unique artistic features on the labels of finest wines made by artists at a workshop held in the wine growing region of Goriska brda last summer.
