Tradition written in history. Elegance crafted for the future.
With the 2005 vintage, brothers Taras and Tadej Gašparin set a new path and vision for Silveri - an uncompromising pursuit of precision and distinctive character,
reflected in the unique and recognizable style of our sparkling wines.
1750
Our story begins in 1750, with our ancestor Blaž Gašparin.
In 1750, our ancestor Blaž Gasparini — a publicus notarius with imperial authorization — authenticated legal documents with his seal, which is still preserved today in the Regional Historical Archives in Gorizia.
His notarial seal bore Marian symbolism, with a guiding star and twelve lilies — a mark of trust, dignity, and distinction.
The Gašparin family was already a respected landowning lineage, with several estates across the Brda region.
Through the centuries, three values have endured, deeply rooted in our identity:
-
trust
-
devotion to the land
-
the ambition to create something greater
These values have led us to where we stand today.
1970
The beginning of our modern journey
The legacy was carried forward with vision by Boris and Maruška Gašparin, together with Silverij Vuga.
They established a philosophy that remains the foundation of Silveri:
Less is more.
Nothing is left to chance.
Identity.
Elegance.
2003
The beginning of our modern journey
In 2003, a step was made that marked our identity:
the first sparkling wines from the 2003 vintage — the first 5,000 bottles of Brut and Rosé.
The varieties of Rebula, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir showed us that Goriška Brda has everything needed for the world of the traditional method:
-
rich minerality
-
elegance
-
structure, essential for sparkling wines with ambition
This is the official beginning of Silveri — the beginning of our mission.
2006
A name written in honor
At the passing of our grandfather, Silverij Vuga, we made a decision
that became the foundation of our brand and identity:
His name lives on in our sparkling wines.
Silveri is not just a name.
Silveri is a tribute to a visionary and a symbol of prestige from Brda.
2008
The home of excellence in ageing
With a clear ambition for extended ageing, in 2008 we built a space where our sparkling wines evolve towards perfection.
Solkan — the old town center as a guardian of elegance.
-
A minimum of 3 years ageing on the lees
-
An optimal microclimate for the slow, refined evolution of bubbles
-
A space created for the highest standards of the traditional method
During this period, vinification and blending of vintages still took place in Kozana, in the former cellar of Silverij Vuga.
2020 -
Complete autonomy
Since 2020, in our cellar in Solkan, we carry out the entire process:
from grape reception to our own disgorgement.
This allows us:
-
full control of quality at every step
-
the highest professional standards of the traditional method
-
an uncompromising, author-driven approach
Today, Silveri stands as a reference for Brda sparkling wines:
professional, bold, and visionary.
