Villa Brici
From the Western Slopes of Goriška Brda, where viticulture is the way of life. Almost every family living here cultivates a small vineyard, also growing cherry, fig, and olive trees. The grapes are grown on gentle sloping, mineral laden soils, with the warm influence of the Adriatic and the cool alpine breezes of the Alps. Made at the Klet-Brda wine cooperative founded in the 1920s, these wines offer an expression of varietal correctness and mineral freshness, at a great value.
