The Koper wine region, located on the southwest coast of Slovenia, is a gem for wine enthusiasts. Benefiting from a Mediterranean climate, Koper offers ideal conditions for viticulture. The hot and sunny summers, combined with mild and rainy winters, allow the grapes to ripen in optimal conditions, giving Koper wines a unique aromatic richness.

In addition to Refosco, Koper also stands out for its white wines, particularly Malvasia, which is characterized by its freshness, expressive fruitiness, and perfectly balanced acidity.
Renowned for its respect for viticultural traditions, the Koper region sees many winemakers embracing 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're a novice or an expert in cellar management, Koper wines offer a diversity and depth that will satisfy the most discerning palates.
