Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria

45 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

Bulgaria has been producing wine for over 5,000 years — and nowhere is that heritage more alive than in Central Northern Bulgaria, the heartland of the country's most distinctive grape varieties.

What sets this experience apart is access. We work exclusively with boutique family wineries and centuries-old cellars that you simply cannot visit on your own — producers who pour their entire identity into every bottle.

You'll taste wines made from grape varieties found nowhere else on Earth: Gamza, Red Misket, and Dimyat — grapes that produce wines which are fresh, smooth, and effortlessly elegant. Your expert host will take you through the story of each winery, the unique terroir of the region, and why these local varieties are quietly becoming some of Europe's most exciting wines.

This isn't a standard wine tasting. It's an introduction to a wine culture the world is only beginning to discover — and you'll experience it first, right here in Veliko Tarnovo.
