Alexandra Estate

Alexandra Estate

Innovation, style and the pursuit of the best are the basis of the project Alexandra Estate. It all started in 2012 with the purchase of 200 acres of premium vineyards in the region Sakar, proven to be one of the most famous wine regions in Bulgaria. Alexandra Estate’s vineyards in Oreshets, Harmanli were in the first fruiting year when they attract the attention of the experts, and their proximity to the 100 years old oak forest and the location in the foothills of the Eastern Rhodopes contribute more for their selection. The exposure of the vineyards is north. This allows the grapes to retain good acids even in this region with normally hot climate. Varieties included in the estate’s wines are: Syrah, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay, Marsanne, Roussanne, Semillon and Viognier. In 2013, Alexandra Estate is expanding with another 100 acres of vineyards in the village Rakitnitsa, Stara Zagora, located 300 meters above sea level, and their carbonate soils contribute to the excellent quality of grapes planted on them. Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Semillon will produce its first fruit in 2016. What distinguishes Alexandra Estate in the cultivation of vines, are the principles of organic and biodynamic farming. In 2014. Alexandra Estate will produce a total of 30,000 bottles of wine: white, ros? and red. In the same year will begin construction of a winery in the village Rakitnitsa, which will produce up to 60,000 bottles. At a design stage is the second winery of Alexandra Estate with larger production capability, located in Oreshets village. For the vinification are used own French oak barrels with a capacity of 225 liters and 300 liters. All wines, except ALEXANDRA SAUVIGNON BLANC 2013, are fermented and matured in barrels, and even the Ros? is partially fermented in French oak. For Alexandra Estate work proven professionals: the cultivation of the vines is entrusted to Atanas Shiderov and Eric Moro and for the wine making and the creation of blends take care Alexander Velyanov and Thierry Haberer

Thracian valley

Thracian valley

In this region, which includes Southern Bulgaria, the climate is temperate continental protected from northern winds thanks to Stara Planina, with good rain distribution. It includes the central parts of the Thracian lowland and parts of Sakar. Most of the red grape varieties are concentrated in this area. Mavrud, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Muscat, Pamid and others are grown. The climatic conditions of the region favour the production of rich, dense, memorable red wines, especially from the varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Mavrud. Good wines from the local variety Mavrud are especially valued for their aroma and taste of small red fruits, spices and herbs.

Petit Verdot

Сортът грозде Пти Вердо (Petit Verdot) произхожда от областта Медок, най-известната област на Бордо, Франция, в северната част на региона, близо до устието на река Жиронда. Пти Вердо е един от сортовете грозде, използвани при производството на Bordeaux, макар и в много по-малка степен от основните сортове грозде, които съставляват класическия купаж на Bordeaux - Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc и Merlot. Много френски производители са изоставили отглеждането на сорта дотолкова, че през 1988 г. площите с лозя са намалели до едва 300 ha. Пти Вердо е широко разпространено и в Калифорния, както и в някои гръцки и италиански региони. В Италия сортът се проявява много добре в Тоскана, Марема Ливорнезе, Марема Гросетана и Агро Понтино в Лацио. Пти Вердо е много взискателен към зреенето сорт грозде и често най-добрият му потенциал се проявява далеч от местата на произход. Сортът узрява късно, така че е устойчив на гниене и може да произвежда танинови, концентрирани и цветни вина. Поради това той дава отлични резултати в райони, които се характеризират с топъл, много слънчев и постоянно проветрив климат с много малко валежи по време на вегетацията. Характеризира се средно големи листа с петоъгълна форма. Гроздът му е средно малък, с продълговата пирамидална форма, със средно малки сферични плодове и много тъмносин цвят. Винифициран самостоятелно, дава вина с интензивен рубиненочервен цвят, с плодови, цветни аромати и характерна пикантна нотка в най-добрите реколти, с видими танини, макар и меки, подходящи за дълго отлежаване. Обикновено обаче се използва в купажи.
