Jo§ef Ornik, a famous Ptuj wine producer, had this section of his wine cellar walled off just before German troops entered the area during the World War II and thereby managed to save his most valuable and oldest wines. Today, Ptujska klet, the oldest wine archive in Slovenia, can proudly display the rarest of vintages, including the 1917 "Zlata trta" (Zierfandler), the 1919 Zeleni Silvanec, the 1926, 1935, and 1938 Renski Rizling, and many others.
