Trastena
Trastena is a family winery that grows a plantation with 95 decares of organic raspberries and produces wine according to a legendary recipe of the ancient local monks high in the peaks of Stara Planina. The Trastenaya area is located above Lakatnik and is one of the happiest places that nature has created. As the owners of the winery say about themselves & quot; Every summer the bee families of Todorovi Bee Farm visit us, who take care of our favorite raspberries. & Quot; The fruits are picked by hand, music is listened to during fermentation and art is bottled with wine. Trastena Raspberry Wine is produced from 100% fermented organic raspberries and a lot of tradition. The taste is sweet, full, with a rich fruity character. Rastena Trastena wine has not only a fairytale taste - but is born in a fairytale.

Danubian Plain
The area stretches from the banks of the Danube to the slopes of Stara Planina, covering the fertile Danube plain. It is characterised by a temperate-continental climate with hot summers and a large number of sunny days. The main varieties are Muscat Otonel, Gamza, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Aligote, Pamid and others. The region produces dry white wines, some sparkling wines by using the classical method and some quality red wines with rich fruity aroma and fresh taste. Gamza is the typical local variety, also known in Serbia and Hungary as Kadarka. It is a red variety, grown mostly in the regions of Vidin and Pleven, which ripens in late September and gives fresh, fruity and pleasantly harsh wines with a typical aroma of raspberries and wild red berries.

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.
