Dinner at St. DanielDinner with us is a calm end to the day.Without rush. Without excess.
Each evening, we prepare a 4-course menu based on seasonal ingredients and local produce from the Karst. We cook with what is at its best in that moment — ingredients we know and trust. No shortcuts. No trends.
This is not just dinner, but an essential part of the St. Daniel experience.
An evening where you slow down and let the moment guide you.
The flavors are clean, the combinations balanced. The evening unfolds at a gentle pace, with soft music in the background. Service is discreet, and each course follows naturally, without haste.
Winter time (October – May) at 18:00. Dinner in our house is from Monday to Sunday.
Summer time (June – September) at 19:00. Dinner in our house is from Monday to Sunday.
Healthy organic breakfast
At our house, we only put as much on the plate as we will eat. So that you will not be surprised… we are very angry when we see food thrown away unnecessarily on the plate! And we say it out loud.
Every bite left on the plate is wasted food. By 2030, there will be more than 8.5 billion of us in the world. Our well-being is not the well-being of all the inhabitants of the world. Food is not evenly distributed throughout the world. There are many hungry people. Let’s be aware of the fact that it is not self-evident that we have food on our plates every day. Let’s be respectful and grateful.
Organic food production requires a lot of effort, heart, dedication and manual work. Let’s show our organic partners our gratitude by not letting the fruits of their labor go to waste.
Rather, give them a sincere message: “Thank you for your efforts”.
Breakfast is included in the price of an overnight stay.
Dinner at our house
Our guests are aware and want to dine healthy. That’s why we have an early dinner at our place – a linner. We are part of a community and it is right to help each other. That’s why we decided to enable our guests the opportunity of meeting our 0 km partners, who are guided by the same philosophy in cuisine as us…fresh, authentic and prepared with love.
Wine tasting
For dinner and wine tasting, advance reservations are required which you can make at the reception or by phone no later than the day before the event.
Beti and Darko Derenda, in love with the Karst, they bought an old house with a plot of land in Hruševica in 1996. Work on the restoration of the house and the planting of the vineyard took place simultaneously. With every stone placed in the right place, with every vine planted in the ground, their bond with the Karst deepened.
Santei organic biodynamic winery
First it was a dream. Then there was the idea. Then the vision to offer a new, natural, ecologically produced and unforgettable experience by combining the best terroir and respecting the natural features of the Vipava Valley. Then the hard work began.
