Colorito Chardonnay/Viognier/Marsan 2021
40% Chardonnay, 26% Viognier, 18% Marsanne, 16% Roussanne
The colour is golden with slight greenish tints. The aroma is dominated by the floral notes characteristic of Viognier and Marsanne. The well-defined acidity balances well with the volume and density of flavour. The wine finishes with a long aftertaste, with light mineral notes and leaves a pleasant feeling of freshness.
The Colorito blend is a great summer wine which, thanks to its rich and complex profile, can be paired with a wide range of dishes - from salads with milk dressing, fish or seafood dishes to dishes with cream sauce or soft cheeses. A fruit platter or light fruit dessert would also be an excellent choice for a combination.

AYA Estate Vineyards
AYA Estate Vineyards is a company, the successor of viticultural knowledge for several generations, with over 80 years of experience in artisanal wine production. These traditions determine the direction of the project - the revival of endemic Bulgarian varieties and focusing on the terroir expression of wine, thanks to working with nature, not against it. The main massifs are located in southwestern Bulgaria, in the village of Harsovo, Melnik region, but also have 10 hectares in northeastern Bulgaria, only 2 km from the Black Sea, near Cape Kaliakra, which determines the freshness of white wines produced by Seewines. , especially emblematic of which is Sauvignon Blanc. The vineyards in Harsovo, from which the Shiroka Melnishka vine grapes are extracted, are over 50 years old, and the new plantations with Sira, although still young, impress with their potential and the pronounced peppery characteristics of the variety. Seewines follows the principles of biodynamics, both in the vineyards and in the wine production itself, maintains the biodiversity in and around the vineyards and practices the most sparing and environmentally friendly viticulture.

Struma Valley
The Struma Valley region covers the Southwestern part of Bulgaria and the Bulgarian part of Macedonia. The climate of the region is specific and is highly influenced by the warm currents from the Mediterranean Sea. The main grape varieties here are the local endemic Shiroka Melnishka vine, Melnik 55 (cross between Shiroka Melnishka vine and the French variety Valdigie), but also the international varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and others. Due to the dryer climate and the higher temperatures, the wines develop warm southern tones in the aroma, with nuances of ripe fruit and a densely rich body. Of particular interest are the wines from Shiroka Melnik vine, partly due to the fact that the variety is difficult to grow because it ripens in late autumn. Today, the region is the most dynamically developing in Bulgaria, with many new, small, family owned wineries, increasingly focused on the quality and terroir expression of the wines they produce.

Marsan
Сортът Марсан (Marsanne) е бяло грозде с произход от района на Северна Рона. Той много прилича на сорта Русан, с който традиционно се отглежда и също често се бърка. Извън Франция се отглежда и в Швейцария, Испания, Австралия, Нова Зеландия, Канада и Съединените щати. В Италия той е въведен от войските на Наполеон и се отглежда в Емилия, в района на Пиаченца и в Тоскана. Въпреки че не е толкова чувствителен като Русан, Марсан е склонен да дава лоши резултати, ако се отглежда на неидеални места. Например при прекалено горещ климат гроздето може да узрее прекалено много и да се получи „вяло“ вино с малко киселини и аромат, а при прекалено студени места то трудно узрява напълно и полученото вино е безвкусно и неутрално. За да поддържат подходящо ниво на киселинност, лозарите се опитват да събират реколтата от Марсан точно преди да достигне пълна зрялост. От него се произвеждат вина с интензивни цветове, плодов крушов аромат и нотки на подправки. Предвид захарното съдържание на гроздето, вината, произведени, могат да бъдат богати на алкохол и имат известна склонност към отлежаване в дъб. С отлежаването виното от Марсан придобива още по-тъмен цвят, ароматите стават по-комплексни, на мед, ядки и дюли, а небцето показва почти мазна текстура.
