The Simčič winery straddles the borders of Italy and Slovenia, its vineyards are situated in the Slovenian region of Brda and Italy’s Collio region, immediately to the west of Brda. The sites are farmed organically and many biodynamic practices are followed here and in the winery. Winemaking for Marjan’s wines typically involves skin contact and fermenting, often in concrete eggs (see above). They’re then aged in large- and small-format oak barrels.
Marjan Simčič is one of the best winemakers in Europe and has a cult following amongst sommeliers at some of the top Michelin-starred restaurants. These wines feature on the wine lists of Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester, The Fat Duck and Furna. They’re typically only available to the restaurant trade – Brunswick is one of a select few Retail Ambassadors for Simčič worldwide.
Marjan’s wines are consistently rated 95+ by top wine critics and are the absolute best from this region. Italian wine critic Luca Gardini ranked Simčič’s Rebula Opoka, as his number-one wine in the entire world, beating all comers ahead of wines like his native Sassicaia, Grand Cru Burgundies, and Clos St Hune.
The Simčič winery produces wines using Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Ribolla Gialla, Pinot Grigio, Merlot and Pinot Noir.
