The wine region of Suhindol
Historic birthplace of Bulgarian wine on the Danube plain (north-central), home to the oldest cooperative in the Balkans (Lovico, 1909), nicknamed "Bulgarian Champagne". Gamza (Kadarka) is the signature indigenous red: light and crunchy with cherry, raspberry, violet and herbaceous notes, lively acidity and soft tannins — strong regional identity. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot add structure and dark fruit. Mavrud, Syrah and Chardonnay as complements.
The wine region of Danubian Plains
One of two Bulgarian IGPs (between the Danube, Balkans and Black Sea), ~30% of national production. Temperate continental climate, fertile chernozem soils. Gamza (Kadarka) the red signature: deep and lightly spiced with wild red and black fruits, plum, walnut, vanilla and a peppery touch, melted tannins — a balanced everyday wine. Light Pamid, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot as complements.
The word of the wine: Downy mildew
Disease of the vine due to a fungus. Downy mildew is formidable because it attacks all the organs, from the stem to the grapes, including the leaves, in depth. It was against it that the famous copper and lime-based Bordeaux mixture was developed.
