Maribor and its surroundings offer unique wine experiences along one of the most beautiful wine roads in Slovenia – a winding route that leads through picturesque hills, wine cellars, and vineyards scattered across Styria. Visitors can taste top-quality wines from local winemakers who carefully nurture centuries-old winemaking traditions, offering a wide range of varieties, including Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Traminer, Pinot Noir, and many other indigenous and international wines. Tasting sessions are often paired with local cuisine that highlights the authentic flavors of the region.

One of the most recognizable and romantic spots along this route is the famous heart-shaped vineyard view above Špičnik—a stunning vista created by nature alongside the vineyards, which is considered one of the most photographed corners of Slovenia. This moment can be captured with a glass of wine, from a vantage point or terrace at one of the surrounding vineyard estates.

For those staying in the city, the Old Vine House at Lent also offers an unforgettable wine experience, where you can book a tasting of selected Styrian wines, including those related to the oldest vine in the world. Maribor thus connects tradition, authentic flavors, and natural beauty into a story that delights wine lovers and enthusiasts of genuine experiences.
