Bulgarian Wine

About

Bulgaria has one of the oldest winemaking traditions in the world, dating back over 5,000 years to Thracian times. Key indigenous varieties include Mavrud (deep red, tannic, from Plovdiv), Melnik (light and elegant from southwest Bulgaria), and Rubin. The Thracian Valley and Struma Valley are the top wine regions. Bulgarian wine offers outstanding quality at remarkably low prices — a well-kept European secret.
