Klet Brda

Renowned for its distinctive style, the winery unites 400 families, who have been working together for over fifty years and have turned local wine making into a success story.

The mission is to capture in their wines the uniqueness of the Brda terroir and use effective marketing to contribute to the development of the region and the prosperity of the local population. The guiding principle in their day-to-day activities is a deep respect for nature and its cycles, as they believe that superior quality is born in the vineyard.

The Klet Brda Winery manages 1200 hectares of vineyards in the Goriska Brda region. The largest share of vineyards is planted with the indigenous Brda variety Ribolla Gialla (27%) which is followed by Merlot (20%), Chardonnay (16%) and Sauvignonasse, formerly known as Tocai Friulano (12%). In addition to the above-mentioned varieties the vineyards are planted with Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Noir, Shiraz and the indigenous Pikolit and Verduc. On average a winegrower cultivates a little less than 2 ha of vineyards. Consequently, he pays a lot of attention to the care of vines, which is reflected in the excellent quality of grapes and wine.
