Korten Winery
Korten is a boutique cellar in the region of the Thracian lowlands with iconic red wines. In 2003, a project for the production of wine by French methods began, from which the Solitaire series of wines originated. In 2007, it grew into a series of wines known as vin de garage. The selection is from controlled vineyards in the region and is extremely precise in the selection of the only and excellent quality of the raw material. All the crucial stages of making wine are made by hand, and vinification takes place in small oak vessels. Corten is definitely an interesting winery and we are going to see better and more impressive offers from it.

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.

Syrah
Syrah/Shiraz - Two names of one and the same grape variety - the winemakers from the Old world use Syrah and the ones from the New world - Shiraz. The grape is a deep red, even the pulp, therefore this variety is not suitable for blanc de noir wine style. Syrah wine has specific floral aromas in its youth and develops notes of herbs and spices such as white and black pepper as it ages. These varietal specifics come out better when blended with a small amount of Viognier - a method gaining popularity more and more around the world. Syrah produces wines capable of ageing and improving over decades, which enhances its plummy and almost oriental spicy flavours.
