he Culture of Wine in Slovenia
An innovative form of promotion of Slovene winemakers
and wines is presented by the Wine Team of Slovenia,led
by Miha Istenič, the president of the administrative
board. The goal of the society ZDRUŽENJE VINARJEV
VINSKA REPREZENTANCA SLOVENIJE is to raise the
standard and knowledge of Slovene wines in the EU and
the rest of the world through public relations and charity
sports events at the national and international level. In
addition, we wish to build bridges between large and
small Slovene winemakers, as only the participation of
both at professional, sporting and cultural events will
give us sufficient openness, while the ultimate goal of
our activities is cooperation and striving for the best
possible results (http://vinska-reprezentanca.si). A friendly
match involving Slovene celebrities was watched by well-
known university teachers (Professor Mojmir Wondra),
winemakers, journalists and numerous wine lovers. Gornja
