Discover the best wines made with Marselan as a single variety or as a blend of Stara Zagora.
Supple, fruity reds with a deep robe and melted tannins, featuring aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, violet, soft spices and garrigue notes. Good consistency and short-to-medium ageing capacity. Made in blends and as a single variety in Languedoc-Roussillon (IGP Pays d'Oc) and exported massively to China where it has become an emblematic quality signature. Also in Brazil and Argentina. A Cabernet Sauvignon × Grenache cross created in 1961 by Paul Truel in Montpellier.
Major wine centre in the Thracian Plain (southern Bulgaria), deep alluvial soils, temperate continental climate. Mavrud native ancestral signature red: dense and opaque with blackberry, plum, mulberry, medicinal herbs and balsamic hints, firm tannins and lively acidity — ages superbly in oak. Rubin (Syrah × Nebbiolo cross) full-bodied with blackberry, violet and spice. Cabernet and Merlot complement.
