About the Wine

The estate is comprised of over 42 ha within a microclimate blessed with calcareous clay soils and a cold climate, resulting in beautiful, elegant, and fresh wines. The vineyard is managed in a sustainable way. They are fully committed to the environment, implementing the use of renewable energy, reducing packaging, controlling water consumption, among other practices. The vinification cellar is equipped with modern and advanced technology.

The 2022 Gergana Tsarev brod from Danube Plain was aged for 7 months on the “fine lees”. Greenish yellow in the glass. The nuanced nose presents herbs and green apple and hints of lime against an elegant backdrop of hazelnuts. Broad and terse on the palate, with a voluminous, creamy flow, it’s enlivened by saline acidity before the lengthy finish.

Winemaker notes

Given the vineyard’s east-west exposition, the cool air from the Black see flows into the valley and creates a perfect, natural air conditioning that keeps nights and mornings cool and the days warm. For this reason, white varietis reign supreme here. The visioner Ivan Ivanov, owner of the winery, planted Gergana grape, which has since been thrust into the spotlight and is universally regarded as one of the best experiment in all of Bulgaria.

Gergana has shiny light grassy is local white grape, cross between Dimyat and Muscat Ottonel. Very intensive, flowery and fruity on the nose with attractive notes of ripe apples, citrus fruits and small white flowers. A mellow and fresh body, harmonious and delicate finish.
