Why go
Wine Snow is Slovakia's first mountain wine festival, now in its 15th year. More than 30 Slovak wineries pour across three hotels, so you can wander between them and talk directly to the winemakers.
A panel of sommeliers picks the Best Wines of the Hill in a blind tasting before the festival; results are announced on Friday at 17:00 and the winners are poured throughout the event.
Expect fine spirits, delicacies, local cheese and chocolate, seasonal hotel menus to pair with your glass, and live music in the evenings. Weekend stay packages are available.
