Four Friends

Four Friends

Four Friends Wine Cellar has over 40 hectares of vineyards in the most suitable region for growing grapes in Bulgaria - Thracian Lowland. The mansion is nestled in the land of the village of Gorno Botevo, east of Stara Zagora. The choice is not accidental - the region is famous for its millennial wine traditions dating back 4,000 years. It is these traditions that want to revive four enthusiastic friends, connoisseurs of good Bulgarian wine. The first vineyards of the varieties Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot were planted in 2006 after careful study of the terrain, climate and soil conditions in the region. Wines in the wine cellar & quot; Four Friends & quot; are produced by classical technologies with a lot of manual labor - this largely determines the quality of wine. The total capacity of the winery is 400,000 liters of wine, with the ability to produce 300,000 bottles per year.

Thracian valley

Thracian valley

In this region, which includes Southern Bulgaria, the climate is moderately continental, protected from the northern winds thanks to the Balkan Mountains, with a good distribution of rainfall. It includes the central parts of the Thracian Plain and parts of Sakar. Most of the red grape varieties are concentrated in this area. The varieties grown include 'Mavrud', 'Merlot', 'Cabernet Sauvignon', 'Red Muscat', 'Pamid', and others. The climatic conditions of the region favor the production of rich, dense, memorable red wines from the varieties 'Cabernet Sauvignon' and 'Mavrud'. Good wines from the local variety 'Mavrud' are particularly valued because they combine the aroma and taste of red berries, spices, and herbs.

Riesling

Riesling

Riesling is an aromatic white grape variety that produces wine in the entire range - from botrytized sweet (one of the best in the world) to dry and semi-dry varieties, with captivating aromas of citrus and stone fruits, as well as the typical petroleum aroma, which in certain terroir appearances can dominate sensitively. Riesling's homeland can be said to be the valleys of the Rhine and Moselle rivers in Germany - the variety likes cooler weather. Naturally, here are the main wine regions of the country (Moselle, Rheinhessen, Rheingau, Pfalz). The vineyards are located on the steep hills, making mechanisation difficult, so here the viticultural activities are mainly manual. The wines from these regions are fresh and with a pronounced acidity. However, Riesling in Germany is by no means the main variety, in fact another is the wine region in which this variety is most common - and this is Alsace in France (or Elsaß in German). Unlike the German Riesling, the French Riesling is more saturated and lush due to the specifics of the microclimate there - the Vosges Mountains provide protection from northern winds and cold, and the sun is more generous in this southern region. Outside of these countries, perhaps Austria also presents itself with an interesting reading of this often called king of white varieties, and some countries of the New World successful experiment with it as well.
