Vineyards are located in North West Bulgaria, right on the shore of the Danube River where they enjoy a continental climate at 35-50 m. altitude and benefit from the influence of the river. The wine spends one month in French oak barrels, more to soften the edges than to impart flavour. Chardonnay grapes are carefully selected, hand-picked and whole bunch pressed. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.
Crisp dry white with a medium body and notes of peach, grapefruit and the vaguest hint of tarragon. The same fruit flavours follow on the palate which is more akin to a new world chardonnay than one from Europe.
