Description
The Merlot Kozana Single Vineyard 2019 from Edi Simčič is one of the great red wines from Slovenia's Brda region. The single vineyard Kozana, with its lime- and marl-rich soils, gives the wine exceptional depth, structure, and mineral tension. Edi Simčič is one of Slovenia's most renowned winemakers and stands for wines that uncompromisingly focus on origin, elegance, and character.
The 2019 vintage is powerful yet remarkably precise. The Merlot combines ripe fruit with delicate spice, dense structure, and impressive freshness. Despite its concentration, the wine never seems heavy or overdone; instead, it shows remarkable balance and an almost aristocratic calm. It is precisely this combination of power, finesse, and mineral depth that makes it an extraordinary representative of its origin.
The wine is aged with great patience and intuition to enhance its complexity without overshadowing its origin. This results in a profound and long-lasting Merlot with great elegance, a delicate structure, and a long, multi-layered finish.
