The Belica estate, located in the picturesque Brda village of Medana in the Goriška Brda region, is one of the most authentic wine experiences in Slovenia. Its vineyards thrive in an idyllic setting where the influences of the Alps and the Adriatic Sea meet, creating unique aromatic wine notes developed over generations. Belica is not just a wine shop – it is a complete story of tradition, nature, and love for the vine.
Diverse Wine Selection
In their modernly equipped cellar, they produce various types of wine that satisfy both everyday wine lovers and more demanding connoisseurs. Among them, fresh white wines stand out, with rebula taking the lead, as well as white and red wines aged in barrique barrels, such as selected white and selected red.
The wine selection is divided into several lines reflecting the diversity of the Brda terroir:
White wines and rosé – fresh and aromatic wines, perfect for light moments and social gatherings,
Red wines – fresh line – fruity, lively wines expressing varietal purity,
Selected wines – barrel-aged line – more complex and structured wines for special occasions.
Winemaking Approach and Quality
The story of Belica wines goes back through generations, when the first enthusiast of viticulture, Nonot Pepo, planted the first vines on the estate. His passion for working with nature was passed down to his sons and grandchildren, who today continue the tradition with a modern production approach, preserving the Brda character of the wines and maintaining high quality standards. Each bottle carries a part of the family’s history and the landscape that gives the wine its unique signature.
