Winery Notes

Made by cult-winemaker Aleks Simčič, this Pinot Grigio would cost 40% more if
made just two miles to the west. It hails from Goriška Brda in Slovenia, an area
which was part of Italy’s esteemed Friuli region through the end of WWII. Generous
and unoaked, with orchard fruits and clean minerality, this mouthwatering wine is
a lovely Pinot Grigio at a great price. 8

While the family’s farm in western Slovenia is too tiny to produce his popular
Giocato line, Aleks Simcic works with a handful of organic growers in and around
his village to create his affordable masterpieces. Here, Aleks applies the same lofty
standards as he does with the single estate wines of Edi Simčič.
