Merlot & Syrah Cavaradossi Ivo Varbanov 2020
A blend of Merlot and Syrah, 25% of the wine was aged for 24 months in neutral 500L Bulgarian oak barrels. Opaque garnet colour with soft reflections. Attractive, deep nose with aromas of black fruits, cocoa, mint, coffee and coconut. A rounded, balanced wine with powerful structure and ripe tannins, with black fruit and chocolate on the palate and a lingering, grainy and slightly mineral finish that bodes well for potential.

More about this product
Ivo Varbanov
There is a lot to be said about Ivo Varbanov and there will still be little. It is a phenomenon - both on the world music scene and on the wine scene. In 2003 he started looking for plots with the help of Professor Marin Petkov, then 70 years old, who was the man who drew the wine list of Bulgaria in the 60s. South Sakar is the wine region that wins the interest of Ivo Varbanov. The project is a great challenge and a dream based on the belief in biodynamic and organic farming. The aim is for the wines to be positioned on a par with the wines of the best regions in the world and they seem to have taken the path to success. Many winique moments with the wines and music of Ivo Varbanov are waiting for you.

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.

Merlot
Southwest of France is Merlot’s birthplace - the regions of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Merlot is nowadays widely planted across the world much like Cabernet Sauvignon because it is an early maturing grape variety and because of its ability to ripen fully even in slightly cooler climates. Smooth, velvety, soft and rounded - an “easy drinking" wine with tender tannic structure - these are the common descriptions of Merlot wines.
