Salla Estate
Salla Estate Winery was established in 2010. It is located in the village of Blaskovo, Provadia municipality. The village is located in the heart of the famous Provadia plateau Sarta, only 60 km from Varna. That wine was made in this place during the Roman Empire is evidenced by the remains of pottery found in the vineyards. The grapes are grown on 300 decares of own vineyards, located next to the winery, on the southwestern slope. The planting material is from the French company Guillaume and includes the elite white varieties Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Traminer, Riesling, the attractive red varieties Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and the local Bulgarian variety Vratsa Muscat. The winery makes wines with their own appearance, character and individuality, distinguishable and recognizable in limited series, which give maximum expression of the terroir and microclimate.

The Black Sea coast is an area where nearly 30% of Bulgarian vineyards are concentrated. The climate, with warm summers and mild winters, is suitable for growing white varieties. Autumn is warm and long, which favours the accumulation of enough sugars to produce fine white semi-dry wines. Over 50% of white grape varieties in Bulgaria are grown here, and the most common are Dimyat, Riesling, Uni Blanc, Muscat Ottonel, Traminer, even Sauvignon Blanc. The wines have a pleasant fruity aroma, rich taste and elegant freshness. The old endemic variety Dimyat, in addition to being suitable for dry, is often used for the production of dessert wines, as well as for fine aromatic distillates.
