Made from the cult Indigenous grape variety, Mavrud, planted since ancient times and yet only covering less than 1% of the vineyard area of Bulgaria. Mavrud's home is thought to be the northern skirts of the Rhodopi Mountain south west of Plovdiv where the main vineyard block of Brestovitsa winery is situated.
This example typifies its profile as a full bodied wine with tremendous longevity, boasting red berry and raspberry aromas and flavours. One year in French oak barrels smooths out abundant tannins, that make this wine open up in complexity with age. Open up at least 30 minutes before consumption and try with red meat, game, or strong mature cheeses.
