What happened in 1994?

1994 was a particularly wet year. The grapes were left to ripe until the late autumn. As a result, it was only possible to produce premium quality and late harvest wines. However, it was an especially good year for Sauvignon, while the quality of other varieties was also very acceptable.

Who were the winemakers in 1994?

Matija Kociper

After graduating, Matija’s initial involvement at the company was as a technician. He was responsible for managing the 600 hectares of vineyards, a very difficult and time-consuming task. Once the new cellar opened in 1967, he was entrusted with running it and overseeing the winemaking technology. To this day, he is an exceptional wine taster and assessor. Over the years, he has devoted his immense knowledge and experience to making quality wines. To this day, his energy and enthusiasm still inspire his winemaking colleagues.

Andreja Brglez

Andreja joined the company after working at a large winery in Ljubljana, named Slovenija Vino. Following in the footsteps of Lidija, Andreja’s speciality lies in the area of wine filtration – a delicate process that greatly affects the quality and the microbiological stability of the wine. Naturally, she is an excellent wine taster with an outstanding knowledge of the biochemical processes.
