Description

The traditional homeland of Cabernet Sauvignon is Bordeaux, but it is rarely used alone there. It is mostly blended with Merlot, to soften it. The variety also finds ideal conditions in California. The mild Mediterranean climate and mineral soils of Brda have also helped it develop. Ripe, healthy grapes produce a red wine of extraordinary character.

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.
