Karst wine country has a very different personality from the softer vineyard hills of Slovenia’s east, and
Škerlj Wine Estate captures that beautifully. Set in Tomaj, on Tabor Hill, this is the land of terra rossa - the red soil locally called jerovica - which the estate itself says is why some of the finest Teran is found here.
The property combines country-house accommodation with a pool with a view, garden, terrace and outdoor fire features, all close to Trieste and the wider Karst landscape. It feels elegant, but not overdesigned. More importantly, it feels tied to its terrain, which is exactly what you want from a wine stay in this corner of the world.
