Koželj Wines
Koželj Wines in Ljubljana is a well-stocked wine shop offering wines from all corners of Slovenia, ranging from the largest and most prominent producers to smaller, more unique wineries. Here you can both buy and taste wines, accompanied by snacks. In many ways, this shop is the opposite of Štorija. Instead of a small, specialized selection, you’ll find a wide range and large variety in a well-organized store. The shop is beautifully located at Pogačarjev Square. Koželj is also a chain with locations in several cities across Slovenia.
