Wine tasting in Slovenia

One of our lasts stops before we finished our tour with two days in Venice was a winery in Kopar, Slovenia.  It was a fun tour with a view of one of the world's largest wine barrels among other things.  After the tour we had a wine tasting (nice wine, especially the white, but honestly not better than what I've had here at home).  The wine tasting was greatly enhanced by one of our traveling companions from England.  He put on a very James Bond-ish posh British accent and did a hilarious imitation of a wine connoisseur. He swirled, he sniffed, he sipped, then offered outrageous suggestions about what the wine might contain, never loudly enough of course to insult our tour guide who was justifiably proud of her family's wine business.
