Love your videos, Matthew! I can say that I have never tasted Slovenian wine and that is something I need to change. But I wonder if you could make a video on orange wine, which have really been hitting it off lately. Atleast it have been really popular around here. love from Norway

And btw… Slovenia is one of the best producers of orange wines IMO. They have really hung their hat on the style, especially in the Western part of the country

Nice video! I looked at your previous video about Slovenia a few times before visiting the country myself. :) KORENIKA & MOŠKON - Malvazija Selection 2016 is my favourite orange wine so far. I also really like the Santomas Antonius Refosk.

I haven't gotten to try any Slovenian wine yet, but it's interesting seeing them using the same cultivars like Italy and Hungary. I love both Blaufrankish/Kekfrankos and Furmint from Hungary. We went to Tokaj and Eger in 2016, awesome trip and experience. I will try to look for Slovenian wines at the next wine fair here. Great video and I will check out the other video, I love geeky and non-mainstream wines as much as the classics and their QPR is often pretty awesome.

Ahhhh did you visit by yourself or with my friends at Taste Hungary? Yes the varieties are shared bc the countries border each other and those borders are merely political, there are no major geographical boundaries. I think you’ll REALLY like a couple of upcoming videos

In Tokaj we found a local wine tourism company, they took us to Chateau Dereszala, Disznoko and Himesudvar, a charming family run winery. Where we finally got to try Eszencia, an amazing experience. In Eger we drove to Kovacs Nimrod, saw their vineyards and did a tasting. Their wines were/are very good, but not "Hungarian" enough for my wife and I (my wife is Hungarian). We also visited St.Andrea and saw the cellars and did a tasting.I think their wines are some of the best of Hungarian wines and it seems Decanter agrees with me. As their Nagy Eged Bikaver Superior won best in show last year. I have heard good things about Taste Hungary and regularly read their posts, newsletters, etc.
