A brilliant golden-yellow sparkling wine with a delicate and persistent perlage. The nose is elegant and complex, unfolding layers of ripe plum, apricot, citrus peel, and subtle spice notes, complemented by the depth and refinement gained through extended aging. On the palate, the wine is vibrant yet beautifully balanced, combining creamy texture, freshness, and remarkable finesse. Its long, mineral finish reflects the unique terroir of the Struma Valley. Produced according to the traditional method from the indigenous Shiroka Melnik vine, this limited edition Reserve showcases a new and exciting expression of Bulgaria's most emblematic grape variety. The grapes originate from 10 year old vineyards near General Todorov, where Mediterranean influences and well drained sandy loam soils contribute to the wine's distinctive character. Fermented and aged for 12 months in oak barrels, followed by five years of bottle maturation on its lees, the wine develops exceptional complexity, elegance, and aging potential. A truly distinctive sparkling wine that combines Bulgarian heritage, artisanal craftsmanship, and the character of its terroir in every glass.
