Outdating the founding of socialist Yugoslavia by nearly two centuries, the Soseska Zidanica in the village of Drašiči (or Neighbourhood Wine Cellar as it translates to in English) developed a community-wide system for sharing wine and raising funds for community projects at the same time. As with many great ideas, this one was born out of necessity, as it was often the case that at times of big events (namely weddings) individual families did not have a large enough supply of their own wine to meet the demands of thirsty guests.

Thus is was agreed that a communal wine cellar should be established, from which every member was free to make 'deposits' when they had extra wine and take 'withdrawals' if the need arose - paying back the latter with a steep 50% 'interest' the following harvest. A novel system of keeping track of the accounts using long wooden sticks with lines carved into them was devised. Extra wine from the cellar was also sold, with all the proceeds going to things such as maintain pathways, renovating the town church and paying for funerals. Due to the accounting involved the cellar is often referred to the town's Wine Bank. Visits to the cellar can be arranged in advance. Admission is €60 for up to 20 people, and €3 per person for larger groups.
