The MA-RO wine cellar is nestled in the heart of Slovenia’s renowned Štajerska wine-growing region, more precisely in the Ljutomer–Ormož hills. This area is celebrated for its thousands-year-old winemaking tradition and exceptional natural conditions, making it one of the most respected terroirs for producing refined, premium wines.

The vineyards stretch across the most prestigious slopes of the Ljutomer–Ormož Hills, including Strezetina and Nunska Graba, near the world-famous Jeruzalem wine area. Ranked among the top 3% of vineyard locations worldwide, these exceptional sites offer ideal conditions for growing grapes of outstanding character. Hand-harvested with care, the grapes form the foundation for wines of exceptional quality and expression.

Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Yellow Muscat, and the local variety Furmint thrive in these fertile and carefully cultivated vineyards, shaped by nature and tradition.

The MARO Wine Cellar proudly continues the legacy of the renowned Mursa winemaking family, whose tradition dates back to the 17th century. This heritage lives on through a deep respect for time-honored craftsmanship and a thoughtful approach that embraces the natural character of the vineyards. Guided by terroir, each grape variety is carefully nurtured to preserve its authentic expression, while every wine is overseen with meticulous attention throughout the entire maturation process in the cellar.

Mursa is the signature brand of the MARO Wine Cellar, offering a refined selection of high-quality and premium wines. The wines are distinguished by their expressive aromatics, revealing layers of fruit, floral, and herbal notes. On the palate, they are vibrant and well-balanced, defined by refreshing acidity, harmonious alcohol levels, rich extracts, and a full-bodied yet elegant structure, resulting in wines that are both complex and exceptionally drinkable.

Selected Highlights from Our Portfolio

PINOT NOIR

Dry red wine
0,75 L
13.0 ABV

Pinot noir presents itself with a bright and clear, ruby red colour and a dense texture. The distinct bouquet is delicate and reminiscent of ripe berries, as well as blackberry, plum, and cherry. This is followed by aromas of violet and red rose, which intertwine
with a note of tobacco, and the whole bouquet is pleasantly rounded off by a gentle note of wood and pencil tip. The taste is gentle, perceptibly warm and dry, the acids is refreshing, and in combination with rounding, velvety tannins they shows the youthful character of the wine. An intense and elegant, structured and long-lasting wine affirms the perceptions of berries, flowers and spices on our palate.

The wine complements meat (duck, venison, lamb) and mushroom dishes, goes well with truffles, and is a perfect partner for all kinds of pasta, which is enriched with toppings. It is a pleasant companion to mussels á la buzara, tuna, swordfish, salmon and other bluefish. Combined with mature cheeses, it enhances its character.

Signature Wine – CUVÉE MARIA

Dry white wine
Varietal composition: furmint, sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, pinot blanc
0.75 L
12.5 ABV

A wine with a crystal clear, straw yellow colour and dense texture. In particular, the fruity bouquet gives sensations of lemon, vineyard peach, we also find mango, and sensations of lime, cherry blossom and freshly cut grass.

The taste is soft, perceptibly warm, and the acids are youthful and emphasise the persistence of the mineral aftertaste. A wine of elegance, a fairly full body and a long lasting, particularly fruity aftertaste.

The wine complements dishes with white meat, it can be served with fish courses,

vegetable and pasta with suitable sauces.
