What to expect

DiVes Winery is located close to the Town of Aheloy and Nesebar. It was built on the historic hill of Simeon’s Mound which has a magnificent view over the Black Sea coast between Aheloy and Pomorie.

Here, the Bulgarian king Simeon the Great defeated the Byzantine army in a battle in 917 A.D., thus affirming the power and position of Bulgaria. In honor of Simeon’s victory, we raised a monument named "The Eye of the Winner", which became a symbol for the winery and is invariably depicted on our wine label.

The highlights of the Special History and Wine tour are:
- The story of the Battle of Aheloy;
- A circular walk around the winery;
