Why We Selected This Wine
A wine that is unusual in character due to the varieties that are included in it - one local - Early Melnishka Loza and two French - Cabernet Franc & Syrah. In turn, the French varieties are from different regions of France and are rarely blended together. The fact that the blend itself may not be repeated as exactly this combination makes it unique in its kind.
Vinification Philosophy
- Limited yields
- Minimal intervention and sulphite treatment
- 6 months aging in stainless steel tanks

Green cheese
An intense and salty accent that sits well with the fruity and structured red profile and makes the tannins feel soft and velvety. The acidity in the wine refreshes and balances the fats.
Delicatess "Tsonevo"
The wine refreshes the palate after fatty bites while the savoury meats highlight the wine's dark fruit and earthy complexity.
Snail's and porcini mushroom Pâté
The earthy and umami flavoуrs of the porcini mushrooms and snails are complemented by the complex, slightly earthy and fruity characteristics of the wine, and the creaminess of the pâté softens the tannins.
