Wine Fountain Vodole

Wine Fountain Vodole, set on the scenic Sončni Raj Estate near Lenart and Maribor, is a must-visit destination for wine lovers and those seeking a unique taste of Štajerska’s viticultural heritage. As the first wine fountain in the region, it offers a memorable and interactive way to sample local wines while soaking in the peaceful beauty of the surrounding vineyards and countryside.

Visitors can taste eight different wines from local winemakers—six whites and two reds—alongside two non-alcoholic homemade drinks, making it accessible for everyone. The tasting experience is complemented by a menu of regional food pairings, including cooked smoked pork knuckles, cold-cut platters, and vegetarian or vegan options, all of which can be enjoyed on the terrace overlooking the estate’s permaculture gardens and herb plantations.

Beyond wine, the estate invites exploration with features like an apiary and the “Bee Flight” zipline, adding a touch of adventure to your visit. The Wine Fountain Vodole is open Wednesday through Sunday, with extended hours on weekends, and admission starts at just €4 per person.

Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply curious about Slovenian culture, Wine Fountain Vodole offers a relaxed, friendly atmosphere where you can savor the flavors of the region and enjoy a day surrounded by nature and local hospitality.
