Overview

During your personal tasting experience I will guide you through the distinctive world of Bulgarian wines. Although Bulgaria has been producing wine for 5000 years it is still relatively unknown to the rest of the world. Now a rising new generation of Bulgarian boutique winemakers are devoted to the craft and bringing new attention to our country.

You will taste 5 wine varieties of local grapes unique to Bulgaria, that can not be found anywhere else: Miskets, Melnik, Mavrud, Gumza and Rubin. Plus, local cheeses, artisanal bread and mineral water.
The tasting is held in one of the best boutique wine shops in Sofia – Tempus Vini, which is located on an artsy street in the city center, known for its fine restaurants and boutiques. And just a few streets away from Sofia’s main pedestrian boulevard.

During the tasting I can tell you about the wine regions of Bulgaria including the history and the wine culture of my beautiful country.

All tastings are held in English or Bulgarian

Inclusions

  • Alcoholic Beverages - Tasting of unique Bulgarian grapes

We had a great time! Really nice to taste some bulgarian wines and learning about them. In the Netherlands they dont have bulgarian wines so it was cool to try some. Kalin was really nice!
