Powerful and structured reds with a dark ruby robe, firm tannins and preserved acidity, with intense aromas of ripe black fruits (blackberry, plum), tobacco, leather, spices, Mediterranean herbs and balsamic notes. Good ageing potential. Star of the Melnik hillsides in the Struma valley in south-west Bulgaria, signature of the country's finest reds for ageing. An autochthonous Bulgarian variety (Shiroka Melnishka Loza, "broad leaf"), with very late ripening.

Small German valley south of Bonn, the country's largest contiguous single red-grape zone. Signature Spatburgunder (Pinot Noir) (>60%): elegant, structured reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and sweet spice, silky tannins and taut freshness — Burgundian style in an improbable climate. Also early Fruhburgunder, fleshier. ~560 ha on steep slopes over schist and slate, sheltered temperate microclimate.
