Description
In a nutshell:
This red proves modern Bulgarian wines are proper players with its velvety richness and peppery spice that's surprisingly easy to love.
The lowdown:
A super blend of Merlot and Syrah hailing from Bulgaria's Danube region which explodes with plump blackcurrant and cassis flavours. There's a floral hint of violets and a touch of dark chocolate complexity too. A bit of time in oak barrels lends lovely vanilla and gentle spice notes, balancing the bold fruitiness. Overall, this is a big, flavourful red, surprisingly silky on the palate, and an absolute steal for the price.
The Producer:
It's estates like Château Burgozone which are quickly changing perceptions about Bulgaria. Their location is intriguing and propitious - Danube vineyards are the same latitude as Tuscany - and it shows in the wines. They have a focus on sustainability and quality, which really shines through. Expect elegant reds that have a touch of old-world charm, and Sauvignon Blancs with just the right balance of ripe fruit and fresh, mineral notes. Burgozone is one to watch, pushing the boundaries of what we expect from Bulgarian wine.
When to drink:
Cracking open this smooth, fruity red with a hearty roast, a bit of game, or even a strong cheeseboard is a proper treat.
Suitable for Vegans
