BEST SOUVENIR FROM BLED

 

13 Apr BEST SOUVENIR FROM BLED

BLED CASTLE WINE CELLAR A BLONDE AROUND THE WORLD ANDRE MONK-4  

I’m not a fan of souvenirs.

Actually, I’m not a fan of objects in general. If I have to get or give something, I prefer it to be something more valuable, such time, love, memories..

Although sometimes these two concepts go together.

When we walked around the castle of Bled we accidentally stumbled upon a wine cellar.

We didn’t have time to admire the walls full of bottles and other cool trinkets that a garrulous monk came after us starting to tell stories about every single gadget inside the cellar.

He explained to us everything about local wines, and made us taste a very good one from a barrel, telling us how we could bottle the wine ourselves.

We really liked the idea, also cause it involved corking and waxing the bottle ourselves, and a certificate!

I got a lot of fun bottling my first bottle of wine, and no wonder, my dad loves red wine, so he got the bottle! :)

We spent 18 EUR for the wine, and they were totally worth it!

A special mention goes to Andre the monk. This lively and humorous guy (which we suspected was an actor, but didn’t ask 😉 ) made us spend a good half an hour entertaining us in his funny (but very good!) italian, sharing a lot of interesting thing about Slovenia and its wines!

A must do!

    It’s a pity that when I visited the wine cellar was already closed. I would have loved to bottle my own mine. Love the idea of the blog signature by the way! :-)
