Marjan Simcic
From this winery
  • Start up year: 2008
  • Oenologist: Marjan Simčič
  • Hectares: 18
The year 2008 was a milestone for Simcic winery - Marjan, representing the fifth generation of winemakers, since in 1860 Jožef Simcic bought first pieces of Brda land and planted the oldest vineyards, becomes the pillar of the winemaking from all points of view.
Marjan`s story, which was told and implemented through his wines in the past 20 years, in the year 2008 was brought to such perfection to present to public the result of his devotion - a new line of top quality wines ''Opoka''.
Along the wines’ structure we can follow the intertwining of long-lasting winemaker’s experience, signature of his character and all the best offered by the Brda terroir. In Brda jargon Opoka means marl of aeolian sediment very poor in organic structure, whereas very rich with mineral salts.
