Krčma janževina

Krčma Janževina, a house of wine and cuisine with a rich, more than 400-year history, is located in a relaxing environment in the middle of the Haloz wine-growing region. The generations that lived in this area in the past lived on wine, fruit and other fruits of nature. The house itself, more specifically its eastern part, belonged to the Ptujska gora monastery - Mary's sanctuary for almost its entire history. In the second half of the 19th century, the house was expanded to the west and given its present appearance. The Mlakar family bought the house ten years ago and turned it into an inn based on the theme of the golden age of the Haloze wine region (1840-1945). Krčma Janževina is thus probably the first completely themed restaurant in Slovenia, which is reflected in the story, ambience, music, clothing of the staff and, of course, the cuisine. Culinary delights, called "Walk through the tastes of our ancestors", are adapted to the 21st century and represent a unique experience that visitors can only experience with prior reservation.

In 2024, the story took on a new dimension when Tilen Sedlak and Maja Pečarič (S Wine) took over management. In addition to culinary pleasures, the offer also includes various wine experiences for individuals and groups, such as tasting in the dark, wine tastings with a story, guided tours, banquets and more.
