Rossidi Mavrud 2021
The grapes are hand-picked for quality selection. After an initial pre-fermentative maceration for a period of 4-5 days to extract colour, aromas, tannins, the alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel vessels. The finished wine is aged for 12 months in high quality French oak barrels of the finest structure. Sparkling, brilliant garnet red colour. The nose is complex with notes of rose, cherry, tomato leaf, pepper and nutmeg. Light body, surprisingly smooth and molten with a long, slightly floral finish.

More about this product
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.

Mavrud
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.
