Rubin Via Antica 2021
Natural wine with minimal intervention in production. Ruby from a vineyard in the area of Novite Vineyards in the village of Momkovo, Lyubimets. The grape harvest is entirely manual, long contact with the skins, spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts and whole uncrushed grapes. The wine is aged for 6 months in a Bulgarian oak barrel. The colour is a deep red with slight garnet hues, the body is full and balanced with a long aftertaste of ripe cherry and traces of cocoa. Pairs well with red meats with vegetables and mushrooms, ripe cheeses and light chocolate desserts.

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.

Rubin
Rubin Bolgarskii, or simply Rubin, is a dark-skinned crossing of Nebbiolo and Syrah created in Pleven in 1944. Rubin is grown not only in Bulgaria but also in Moldova, Romania and Slovenia. The wines are of good-quality and high in content of anthocyanins, the compounds responsible for the deep colour of the wine. Rubin's peppery flavour can be attributed to the Syrah, as well as its pleasant crushed-violet aromatic profile, while the tannic structure comes from the Nebbiolo. Wines made from this variety are often aged in barrel where the vanilla and smoky flavours soften the tannins further.
