The wines of Edi Simčič

The wines of Edi Simčič rank among the best wines of Slovenia. Shortly after the fall of the Wall, Edi started his wine business with a clear mission: to make the best wines in the centuries-old terroir of the Goriška Brda region. He succeeded. Today son Aleks runs the small wine business. His wines are all aged in oak barrels - they have long aging potential and an undisputedly high quality.

The terroir of Edi Simčič's vineyards lies on the hills of Goriška Brda, between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea in the west of Slovenia. As a technical employee of the local wine cooperative, Edi knew exactly which vineyards he needed to secure when he started in 1990: south-facing slopes with mineral-rich soil.

All of Edi Simčič's wines are fermented and aged in oak barrels. Only a low yield per hectare is harvested, so the juice is concentrated and the wines firm and full - true food wines that can generally be cellared for years.

Aleks and Edi mainly grow white grapes in the vineyard. Rebula is important, perhaps the most typical grape of the region. They also make wine from Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Friulano and Pinot Gris. Their red wines are made from the 'Bordeaux grapes' Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. We currently have six wines from Edi Simčič in our range. You can view all our wines from Edi Simčič here.
