Discover the grape variety: Melnik

It is most certainly one of the oldest vitis vinifera varieties found mainly in the southwestern part of Bulgaria, and is not known elsewhere - except perhaps in neighbouring Greece and Macedonia - than in this country where it is recognized as endemic. It should not be confused with Ranna Melnishka Loza, also known as Melnik 55, which is the result of crosses between this Melnik and several known Vitis viniferas, including Valdiguié.
