More about this product
Георги Филипофф
Georgi Filipoff was created in early 2019 with the main focus of fruit wine production. The most important product in the brand's portfolio is raspberry wine. It is produced from its own plantations, high in the Rhodopes, near the ancient fortress of Asen and the village of Manastir. The high altitude (more than 1500 m), ecologically preserved areas, ancient traditions and recipes and raspberries of the Mecker variety, hand-picked, are the basis of raspberry wine by Georgi Filipoff.
All wines of the same producerThracian 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.
More wines of this regionMavrud
Mavrud is a dark-skinned grape variety of Bulgarian origin, widely planted in the Thracian valley, more precisely in the region of Asenovgrad. The grape’s name is derived from the Greek mavro, meaning black, and the wines it produces usually are of an inky colour. They also have pronounced tannins and excellent acidity, with stewed-fruit flavours on the palate with some herbal characteristics. It is no easy task to produce wine from Mavrud alone, but whoever succeeds creates a wine that certainly does not lack character.
