Štajerska Region of Slovenia

THE HOME OF EXCELLENT SLOVENIAN WINES

The wine-growing district of the Štajerska Region is the largest in Slovenia, with the Ljutomer-Ormož Hills in Prlekija being its north-eastern part. This is the land of hundreds of terraced hills, wind-rattles (klopotec), thermal springs and spas, and rich cuisine, as well as cultural, natural and ethnological heritage. It represents the centre of the Slovenian wine-growing tradition dating back to the 4th century bc. 

During the Crusades, knights named the place after their homeland – Jerusalem – due to excellent wines and hospitality of the locals. The wishing bell in the Our Lady of Sorrows church reminds us of them. 

The Ljutomer-Ormož Hills captivate with their idyllic landscape. You rarely see the beauty and friendliness of nature so well combined with the kindness and hospitality of people as in the Ljutomer-Ormož district. This vibrant land has given its character to the local people.

WHAT IS THE SPECIAL FEATURE OF WINES OF THIS SMALL WINE-GROWING AREA, FROM WHICH IN MEASURED QUANTITIES THE BOTTLES ROAMED TO EUROPEAN COURTS IN THE PAST CENTURIES?
The most favourable climatic conditions with more than 200 days of sunshine a year, cold nights and soil rich in minerals of the once Pannonian Sea, which curved around the current wine-growing hills as islands and deposited fertile, mineral-rich layer of soil – a mixture of sand and clay perfect for viticulture.
All the vineyards are on steep slopes, covered with grass, which prevents soil erosion and facilitates vine cultivation.

There are many grape varieties growing on this soil and thriving in the favourable climate. Due to the favourable warm and dry Pannonian climate, in addition to excellent harmonious dry and semi-dry wines and varieties, the land also offers premium semi-sweet and sweet wines of special qualities, such as late harvest, selection, grape selection, ice wine and dry grape selection (different levels of natural sugar content).
