If you’re looking for a truly unique wine experience, autumn is the perfect time. At our Karpatská Perla winery in Šenkvice, we have prepared a special program that will delight every wine lover. You can look forward to new opening hours of our wine shop and two exclusive vertical wine tastings.
New wine shop opening hours
To make it easier for you to enjoy our wines, starting from October 2025 our wine shop will be open:
-
Tuesday – Thursday: 10:00 – 18:00
-
Friday: 10:00 – 21:00 (with a guided cellar tour at 18:00)
Friday evenings are the perfect opportunity to enjoy a glass of wine with friends or to start your weekend in an unusual way, right in the heart of the Small Carpathians.
Vertical tasting - discover wine through time
What is a vertical wine tasting? It’s a tasting of several vintages of the same variety. This way, you can discover how wine evolves over the years and how each vintage reflects the character of its time.
October, we are preparing two special vertical tastings for you:
-
10.10.2025 – Grüner Veltliner
-
24.10.2025 – Rhein Riesling
At each tasting you will taste 6 vintages of one variety – from young, fresh wines to those that have carried their story in the archive for several years. Both tastings will take place directly in our wine shop in Šenkvice from 14:00. The price of the tasting will be 10 EUR. No reservation is needed for the tasting, you just need to come to our wine shop and enjoy this unique experience. And of course, we will also have savory snacks available according to our current offer.
Why come to a wine tasting at Perla?
Thanks to our vertical tastings you will have the opportunity to discover the story of 6 vintages of one wine variety. You will get to know and taste how our ‘pearls’ evolve over time. In this way, you will discover two iconic Slovak varieties – Grüner Veltliner and Rhein Riesling – and experience the atmosphere of our wine shop in the heart of the Small Carpathians.”
