Mare Santo

First sparkling wine aged in the Sea

Mediterranean air – Alpine wind – Adriatic sea

Tradition & Heritage

Born in the green hills of Collio

Why is our wine special? Our grapes ripen on high-quality soil on the green hills of Goriška Brda in a small private winery with heritage and tradition where warm Mediterranean air and cold Alpine wind mix. They both caress and lash the grapes alongside authentic techniques and recipes which is how it acquires its distinctive flavour. The grapes are harvested by hand, and only the best are selected for wine, which is submerged in the clean, blue Adriatic Sea. A year later, the Luxury sparkling wine Mare Santo® is born.

Adriatic Treasure

Why 20 meters undersea?

As commonly known, the sea, with its salt water, is extremely healthy and beneficial. And what is good for a man will without a doubt be also good for wine. The first bottles were submerged almost a quarter of a century ago, and since then, we have been continuously working on improvements, flavour, and bottles. The motion of the sea current at 20 meters of depth keeps the sparkling wine vital and alive. The sea also gives many minerals to the sparkling wine through the cork, which gives the wine a unique flavour. The efforts have most certainly paid off because our wine is exceptionally outstanding.

*The process of ageing sparkling wine in the sea is patented.
