The Movia estate dates back to 1700, passing into the hands of the Kristan?i? family with a wedding in 1820. The estate extends over 22 hectares of land, about half of which lie on the Italian side of the Goriska Brda (Collio).
Movia is more than a mere wine brand and the name of an estate on the borderland between Slovenia (ZGP Brda) and Italy (DOC Collio). Movia is a way of life, life in all its glory, purity of nature and sincerity of the author. Movia is a label beyond time, a mark of standards surpassed as sought by so many wine connoisseurs around the world.
They did not forget Nature's bequest: be genuine, respect Mother Earth and do not stand in its way. That is why Movia is more than merely a brand. It is nature's agent in your wine glass, in you.
Vinification:
Late harvest, hand picked, short vine-to-fermentation times (max. 2h). Primary fermentation in large tanks on natural yeasts obtained from the same pre-harvested grapes (5%). Secondary fermentation completed in barrique barrels on the lees, no racking. No sulphur or any other preservatives used before bottling, thus the wine can complete all its natu- ral processes and become naturally stable, ready to last a human lifetime!
