The wine region of Koper, located on the southwestern coast of Slovenia, is a gem for wine enthusiasts. Benefiting from a Mediterranean climate, Koper offers ideal conditions for viticulture. The hot, sunny summers combined with mild, rainy winters allow grapes to ripen in optimal conditions, giving Koper wines a unique aromatic richness.
The region is primarily known for Refosco, an indigenous grape variety that produces deep, tannic red wines often enhanced with spicy and dark fruit notes. In addition to Refosco, Koper is also distinguished by its white wines, particularly Malvasia, which is characterised by its freshness, expressive fruitiness, and perfectly balanced acidity.
Renowned for its respect for viticultural traditions, the Koper region sees many winemakers adopting sustainable and organic viticultural practices. This approach enhances the authenticity and quality of the wines produced, making Koper a sought-after destination for wine lovers in search of authentic oenological experiences. Whether you are a novice or an expert in cellar management, Koper wines offer a diversity and depth that will satisfy the most discerning palates.
