The article profiles Nika Martinčič, the current Wine Queen of Slovenia, who comes from a family with a long history in viticulture and grapevine cultivation in Šentjernej. Born into a family of winegrowers and grape growers, she has pursued both sports and winemaking as her two great passions. She was crowned Wine Queen earlier this year and describes the role as both an honor and a responsibility. The Martinčič family has been cultivating vineyards for over a century, and they have expanded their operations to include grapevine propagation, producing around 40,000 cuttings annually. Nika is the eldest of four sisters, all of whom contribute to the family business in different ways, particularly through organizing tastings and events. She is currently studying kinesiology at the University of Ljubljana.
