Seewines Spirit
Distillery for the production of high-end spirits with a main focus on Rakia, made from Muscat Ottonel grapes, grown in its own vineyards in the region. It is located within the boundaries of Sredna Gora and the Upper Thracian lowland, in the land of the village of Lesichovo, Pazardzhik region. It is almost the same distance between Sofia and Plovdiv, near the Trakia highway that connects them. , connecting Sofia and Plovdiv and almost the same distance between these two cities. Due to its specific microclimate, the region is well known for its suitable terroir for growing white grapes, especially those intended for the production of spirits(, due to its specific microclimate). The relief is flat with low hills with an average altitude of 290 m. The climate is transitional-continental. Seewines Spirit Distillery received its license in January 2021, and the capacity of its own production is about 50,000 bottles of Muscat Rakia per year. The company owns 15 ha of vineyards, of which 13 ha are located in the village of Lesichovo, and the rest - in the land of the village of Siva Reka, Svilengrad region. The grape varieties grown in the vineyards in Lesichovo are dominated by Muscat Ottonel, intended for the production of rakia under own brand Arkana, but there are few specific, mostly Bulgarian old grape varieties for the production of small batches of wine for connoisseurs. Among these varieties are - Thracian glory (cross between Pamid and Mavrud), Mavrud, Rubin, Merlot, as well as the white variety Black Sea Elixir (cross between Misket and Dimyat). The vineyards in Svilengrad are planted with Syrah and Malbec - for the production of quality red wine. All vineyards are grown organically, without the use of pesticides and herbicides, and fertilisation is done through manure and grassing between rows. The majority of the 13,4 ha of vineyards is 3-4 years old and is at it’s start of grape production, but the company also invests in restoration of some old vineyards planted with Muscat Ottonel variety (over 50 years old), and owns about 2 ha with well developed 10-11-year-old vines. The 4 different locations of the vineyards around the village of Lesichovo clearly show the influence of terroir, even at such a micro level. This contributes to the successful selection of grapes in the fields and harvesting according to the degree of ripening and the desired organoleptic characteristics. In turn it also helps to increase the quality of the material during the vinification process. The distillery is modernly equipped and has the capacity to process not only grapes but also other fruits. At the moment it is equipped with two distillation apparatuses with periodic action, each with a capacity of 700 l, through which a single fractional distillation is carried out. The devices have a reinforcing column and a water reflux condenser, as well as the ability to regulate the distillation process. The premises for barrel ageing, both of alcoholic beverages and wine, have the possibility for thermal and moisture regulation of the environment. The distillery also has an extensive storage room for bottled ageing and storage for finished products.

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.

Broad-Leaved Melnik
Melnik or Shiroka Melnishka loza ( Broadleaved vine of Melnik ) is an exceptionally rare variety grown only in the region of the town of Melnik and specifically in the appellation of Harsovo village. Melnik can produce powerful wines that respond well to extended maturation in oak. They tend to be exotically perfumed, richly textured and have ample tannins. Actually, the variety benefits from the long, stable autumn weather of the region and the main challenge for the producer is to have the patience to wait for the full ripeness of this late ripening variety - which usually happens in mid-October.
