A guide to a country's hillsides should work on the hillside
Wine regions are made of small roads, steep terraces and cellars dug into slopes — lovely places, and poor ones for mobile signal. A guide that fetches its pages on demand fails in exactly the lane where you wanted to check a grape's name, and one that asks for an account first fails a little earlier.
Vinorodno ships whole: every region, district and variety, both language versions, the pairing notes, the glossary and the search are compiled into the download. Nothing is fetched while you read, nothing is sold inside it, and it has nothing to do with buying wine — there is no shop, no partner cellar and no link to either.
If you visit a wine region, the driving is the part that needs planning. Arrange a lift, a driver or a room before the first glass, not after it.
Slovenia's Wine Regions & Grapes
For adults of legal drinking age only. Vinorodno is an information guide; it sells nothing, links to no shop, and does not encourage drinking. Please enjoy responsibly.
Three wine regions, steep terraced hillsides, and a glass to suit every table. Vinorodno is a guide to the wines of Slovenia — Primorska, Podravje and Posavje, and the districts, grape varieties and styles that define each. Learn the local grapes, understand what makes a region's wines distinct, see which dishes they sit well beside, and get comfortable with the words on the label.
Browse regions and their signature varieties, read tasting and pairing notes, filter grapes by colour and region, and look up anything unfamiliar in the glossary. Bookmark the wines you would like to try into a list of your own.
Why the vines climb the steepest hills
No wine, no tasting notes — just sunlight and geometry. At about 46.5° north, where the Jeruzalem hills rise above Ljutomer, the noon sun sits lower every week after midsummer. Tilt the ground towards it and the same sun lands more squarely; tilt it away and the light slides off. Set a slope and a date and compare the two faces of the same hill.
A hill, a sun and two sliders — no grapes, no regions, no pairings and nothing to bookmark. Vinorodno is the part that tells you what grows on those slopes, and what it becomes.
Who publishes it
FrostBrook Games is the app name used by AP Gaube, d.o.o., a company registered in Slovenia. The code, the artwork, both language versions, this website and the Google Play account are handled from one address in Ljutomer.
A grape you think we have placed in the wrong district, a term that reads oddly in Slovenian, or a question about privacy — the mail reaches the person who wrote the app. Pišete lahko tudi v slovenščini.
