We had an amazing tasting session. The owner was very passionate about his products and winery and the conversation flowed very well. Also the wines were very good, especially the macerated wines. Definitely worth the visit!

From the sunny terrace overlooking his vinyards and the beautiful Brda valley, we had a very pleasant, friendly chat with the owner, who offered us a taste of his diverse selection of excellent wines. The mascerated - orange - wines were particularly enjoyable and added a unique touch of authentic Slovenian culture to the tasting. I can recommend a visit to Emeran Reya to anyone!
