Ormoz, Slovenia

FROM New York to Sao Paulo, epicureans have been revelling in a new generation of exciting wines from one of the least expected places - Slovenia, a vintner's paradise in full renaissance.

The small nation has in fact a flourishing viticultural tradition stretching back some 2,400 years to the Celtic era, long before the Romans introduced winemaking to France and Germany.
