When the road climbs onto the Karst plateau, the village of Komen sits at its heart; at the village edge the Perinova Homestead opens its doors to visitors. Here traditional workmanship and ongoing investment in winemaking meet on a small family farm that produces premium wines from its own vineyards—most notably Teran (a recognised traditional denomination) and Malvazija (with a protected designation of origin)—while also raising meat breeds of sheep, goats and cattle grazed across 35 hectares of dry karst meadows, with the farm’s cattle‑breeding segment included in certified agriculture.
