The 'A+ White' represents the pinnacle of Klet Brda's winemaking, a prestigious cuvée crafted only in exceptional vintages from the finest, oldest terraced vineyards of Goriška Brda. Grown on the region's signature 'opoka' soil—a mineral-rich layered marl and sandstone—this wine is a masterclass in blending local heritage with international sophistication. The blend typically brings together the structured and mineral-driven Rebula, the rich and creamy Chardonnay, and a touch of the rare, indigenous Pikolit. Fermented and aged in French oak barriques for at least 12 months, followed by extensive bottle aging, it develops a complex bouquet of ripe stone fruits, wild honey, vanilla, toasted hazelnuts, and elegant mineral undertones. It stands as a tribute to the dedication of the cooperative's families and the unique microclimate where the Alps meet the Adriatic.
