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)
Marjan Simcic Pinot Grigio Cru Selection Ramato 2023
13.5% abv
“An authentic copper-toned, pale pink wine, showcasing the natural colour of this pink-skinned grape. The bouquet is complex and inviting, with aromas of red apple, strawberry, ripe peach and a hint of cloves. This is creamy, full-bodied and rounded – more about texture than fruitiness though there are notes of poached pear, red berries, cinnamon and peach underscored with lightly savoury, fine tannins. Great length too.”
Caroline Gilby MW
