Description
In a nutshell:
If you appreciate refined, elegant wines with a touch of intrigue, this excellent Bulgarian red is worth a look.
The lowdown:
This Bulgarian red offers a delightful intrigue. Expect deep black fruits - blackcurrant, maybe a hint of blackberry - woven with an almost dusty, herbal note. It's a blend of the familiar Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah with the lesser-known Marselan, and even a touch of the rare Egiodola. A year in oak and further bottle ageing have softened the edges, adding complexity. The result is a wine far more nuanced and sophisticated than its price tag might suggest.
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:
This smooth, elegant red's a cracking choice for a roast dinner, a rich poultry dish, or even a flavoursome mushroom risotto.
Suitable for Vegetarians
