The wine-growing region of Slovenia is divided into three countries and nine districts. The largest part of the total area of vineyards in Slovenia is in the wine growing region of Podravje, and the largest wine growing region of Styria is also in it. Nearly half of this area is planted with varieties of Laški rizling, Sauvignon, Rhine Riesling and Chardonnay. The second largest is the wine-growing region of Primorje. It is divided into four wine-growing districts: Goriška Brda, Vipava Valley, Karst and Slovenian Istria. The third largest in the wine country is Posavje; It is divided into three wine-growing areas Bizeljsko – Sremič, Bela krajina and Dolenjska. The following varieties of grapes are predominant: velvet, blue frank, russian and russian. Following the consumption of wine, Slovenes with an average of 43 liters per capita were third in the European Union. We are lagging behind only for the Portuguese, they drink an average of 48 liters per capita, and the Luxembourgians, who on average drink more than 50 liters per capita. The European average is 23.9 liters per capita. In average, the least amount of wine is consumed in Poland, only 2.1 liters per capita, which is almost twenty times less than in our country.The vineyard is painted in the Bizeljsko wine region where the vines of Laški rizling are grown

Thank you for your kindness, dear friend
I believe that the best wine is in Georgia (country))
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment….I can not comment on this because I have not drunk Georgian wine … but I do not think it’s better than our French and Spanish wines
Ah beautiful wine country shots Lado! I never acquired a taste for wine. Though we do produce it here in Napa Valley California. A lot of people visit the wineries every year.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Kim….I’m not even a big fan of wine … alcohol in general
We are also producers here in Spain, and your post is very interesting, I didn’t know about Slovenia being such a good producer! Good post!
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend…I know and I know that in Spain you also produce excellent wine
We have a large wine production in Australia and I really love drinking good quality wine.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, my friend….I believe that you also have excellent wine in Australia … unfortunately, he does not know … I do not remember to ever try it
I don’t drink much wine but we do have wine making places in Auckland.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Pamela…I do not drink much alcohol … no wine or anything else

We are very similar to alcohol … I can not miss it
I drink Boone’s Farm, because last month was an excellent year!
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment…this is a wine brand Boones Farm?
it is hardly wine at all. we used to drink it in high school
Thanks for the kind explanation
No self respecting wine country would sell it
And what if you produce it more than you drink? You pour it into the canal ha ha ha
Wonderful photo and interesting about the wine processing.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, my friend
Wonderful photo and interesting about the wine processing. I know that they do grow grapes for wine in Latvia as well but when I lived there I never had the opportunity to go see the vineyards.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend
This is a beautiful and impressive photo, dear Lado. I don’t mind to live there…
Is wine from your country exported or processed by local companies for local consumption?
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, dear friend….more than half of the wine is exported worldwide … most in the EU
The plantation and the wine industry certainly make a big contribution to the Slovenian economy, isn’t it?
Winegrowing and wine sales are a large sector of the Slovenian economy, dear Albert
Well, I know one more thing about your country, dear friend.
I’m really glad you found out something new … that you will not just teach me, dear Albert
Unfortunately, I do not drink wine
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Vidocka….you live in a wine country and do not drink wine
You are right. I do not even drink alcohol
Even for big holidays, not … when you celebrate your birthday or New Year?
I can not remember when I finally tried alcohol
I should think too well, dear Vida
There are many vineyards around and I have visited.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Sharon….I do not drink alcohol in principle … but if something is celebrating, I’m drinking some glass very rarely …
I don’t drink vine so much only on occasions like weddings or Christmas.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend…I do not drink too much … I do drink my average for others
In my country there are many wine regions. I prefer some white sweetened wine.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, dear Lacho….you will believe that I remember when I traveled through Bulgaria
Such a beautiful landscape to admire while sipping a glass of wine.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Mohan….And some varieties are really high quality…more than half of the wine is exported, but it still remains enough for us
We drink a bottle of wine, over the course of two or three months (we just don’t drink very often). But we live in the part of Maryland/Virginia where there are a lot of wineries!
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend…I do not drink alcohol in principle … but if something is celebrating, I’m drinking some glass very rarely … we are not responsible either
I do like to go to Vineyards though, they are quite beautiful!
I also like to visit a beautiful vineyard where they grow good vines
Growing up with my father (the avid gardener) I truly enjoy seeing other people working on vines, plants and flowers!
I really do a lot of work if you want to produce good wine … I go sometimes to help harvest … it is also a special experience
I don’t live an area where the grapes grow. However I have been to the vineyards and it was interesting.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, my friend
Interesting information. But the truth is, I don’t drink wine.
