From March 2 to 8, 2026, Klet Brda will participate in one of the most influential wine showcases in the world. At all three editions of Great Wines World 2026 – in New York, Miami and San Francisco – organized by leading American wine critic James Suckling, Klet Brda will once again contribute to positioning Slovenia on the global wine map, alongside the wineries Marjan Simčič Domaine and Ferdinand.

Participation in the Great Wines World events is by invitation only, based on strict selection criteria. This year, 350 selected wineries from around the world will present their wines in both New York and Miami, while 200 will take part in San Francisco. Klet Brda is proud to be included in this distinguished group for the second consecutive year, confirming the consistent quality and international recognition of its wines.

The renewed invitation and participation in all three editions provide direct access to a global community of premium buyers, distributors and influential wine professionals. Klet Brda has been present in the United States for many years, operating its own distribution through Laureate Imports and collaborating with an extensive network of 39 distributors nationwide. Suckling’s ratings and the invitation to Great Wines World 2026 represent strong support for the winery’s long-term strategic development and further expansion in the U.S. market.

Strengthening the international visibility of Goriška Brda and Slovenia

Beyond the presentation of wines, participation in Great Wines World serves as a highly visible international platform for promoting the unique story of the Brda terroir and Slovenia as a distinctive wine-producing country. The presence of Brda wineries at this prestigious event was first established by Marjan Simčič Domaine, Ferdinand, and Movia, and Klet Brda is proud to continue this shared effort for the second consecutive year.

Together, these wineries are strengthening Slovenia’s recognition on the global wine map and reinforcing the role of Rebula as a key ambassador of the region’s historic winegrowing heritage. With the support of an influential critic such as James Suckling, Slovenian wines are gaining visibility and credibility among the most demanding international markets, contributing to the long-term development and reputation of the country’s wine sector.
