Where are we traveling?
PrimorskaSlovenia
Brda
Besides being home to the best Slovenian white wines, Brda is a wine region where the Alps embrace the Mediterranean. Brda lies on the border between Slovenia and Italy, around the town of Gorizia. The vineyards stretch along the border in both countries. The Slovenian part of the region is called Brda (the Gorizia Hills) and the Italian part Collio. The vineyards cover 2,000 ha in Slovenia and 1,500 ha in Italy. What makes this wine region special is its climate, its soil and its people. In a word: its terroir. Brda's location creates favourable conditions in which the coolness of the Alpine climate mingles with the warm Mediterranean air. The Gorizia Hills lie very close to the Alps. Sunshine is plentiful, which, combined with the warm air from the Adriatic Sea, helps both red and white grapes ripen well. The cool breeze from the Alps helps the grapes keep their freshness and acidity.
The little history of the country
Slovenia
Slovenia is a small European country with a long history of wine production. The cultivation of vines dates back to the Celts who were the first to produce wine in the territory of what is now Slovenia, 400 years before Christ. With the arrival of the Romans in the first century AD, the cultivation of vines developed further. But let's talk a little about what happened over the last century: despite the cultural and political unrest that besieged the Balkan states, Slovenia has maintained its wine industry, which has been particularly prosperous since the country gained its independence. of the former Yugoslavia.
Slovenia has a diverse geography, offering a wide variety of microclimates. The region is bordered to the north by the Austrian Alps, to the west by Italy and the Adriatic Sea, to the east by Hungary and to the south by Croatia. Grape varieties grown in Slovenia exhibit Italian influence in the west, Germanic influence in the east, and a growing "international" French influence in general. This multi-influence contributes to a very varied and astonishing typology of wines!
