Between vines and cherry trees

The wine hills of Brda are embraced on one side by the highest Slovenian and Italian peaks, while on the other, they descend into an extensive plain that leads to the Adriatic Sea. Straddling the border between the Alpine and Mediterranean regions, they rightfully earn their nickname "Slovenian Tuscany" and the reputation as the finest Slovenian onegastronomic destination.

All the Colors of the Seasons

Sunny slopes covered with vineyards, olive groves, and orchards, while medieval stone villages adorn the hilltops. In spring, cherry blossoms flourish, turning the green landscape into a white canvas. Summer brings the fruit trees to fruition, complementing the rich traditions of viticulture and olive cultivation. In autumn, the vine leaves turn into a colorful watercolor painting. Winters are mild, with only the snow-capped peaks of the Julian Alps in the background indicating the true season.
