Unique winery with hotel in Bulgaria's historic wine-growing region
The 36 hectares of vineyards are planted in an area of 50 hectares. Planting rights exist for the remaining 14 hectares of currently unused land.
The vineyards were replanted between 2013 and 2018 according to western standards and planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Old Cabernet Sauvignon vines from 1970 complete the vineyards.
The microclimate with high daytime temperatures and cool nights is ideal for growing French grape varieties and for vinifying exceptionally characterful premium wines with long ageing potential. In addition, the vineyards are well protected by the slopes of the nearby mountains and good air circulation. The vineyard is planted with cherry trees, walnut trees and oaks, either individually or in groups.
In order to increase the concentration of grapes, the terroir of stone, sand and clay soils with its high water storage capacity is not irrigated. Rested soils that have not seen any artificial fertiliser for decades are the best prerequisite for great wines.
For quality reasons, the current production is currently only around 30,000 bottles, but can easily be increased.
The wines are regularly awarded high scores by world-renowned wine critics.
The winery is under the excellent care of one of Bulgaria's leading agronomists.
