Marjan Simcic Chardonnay Cru Selection 2022

13.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

“A vivid golden yellow wine, scented with creamy apple, lemon and white peach and a subtle vanilla nuance. The palate is simply lovely, with fine silky texture and vibrant freshness, and harmonious flavours of freshly squeezed lemon and juicy pineapple. Graceful and truly elegant Chardonnay with a lingering finish.”
Caroline Gilby MW

The wine is a deep yellow colour with a cast of gold. A rich, dry wine, with an unassuming bouquet of vanilla and tropical fruit – melon and guava – developing into a moderate degree of spiciness. It has an elegant, well-rounded and attractive texture. It has a good balance between full body, alcohol and freshness. Due to its production methods, it is very mineral, with a hit of spice. It has a strong taste and at the same time an amazing elegance, harmony and extremely agradable freshness. It has an excellent aging potential.

Fermentation in contact with skins of berries (maceration) for 2 days in 3,000 Litre conical oak barrels (tino); without selected yeasts. Aged for 18 months in 2,500 Litre conical oak barrel. 38 – 48 year old vines in Medana Jama Cru

The Slovenian region of Brda lies immediately to the east of Italy’s Collio region. The two denominations, in reality, comprise one contiguous quality wine zone whose terroir is rudely bisected by an international border. Today many winemakers and grapes cross the border in both directions in short journeys from vineyard to cellar. The Simcic family trace their wine making story in the region back to 1860. Their aim is to respect the historic traditions of the region in both viticulture and wine-making. The 24 Hectare estate's vineyards are farmed organically, yields are kept low and only natural yeasts are used. Marjan is one of the best winemakers in Europe and has honed his knowledge of his land all his life and works to progress the quality of the wines tirelessly every year. The wines are divided into three distinct ranges. Classic ( younger vines, all stainless steel, short maceration with lees aging). Cru Selection (single vineyard, oak ferment and aging, some skin contact). Opoka ( the oldest vines of the Crus, planted on the prized Opoka Soil, longer aging)
