Write a review100% recommended. They show you the vineyards, the facilities, the tunnels carved into the rock, and the barrel room. In addition to the tasting, in our case we were alone and tried up to 8 wines, all high quality: 1 white, 1 orange, 5 reds, and 1 sweet.
A very good experience of tasting and visiting the winery. It is still in development, but they do tastings of many wines in several languages every day. We would definitely go back. Incredible natural environment.

This is THE winery to visit in southwestern Bulgaria. The estate is expansive and beautiful (the image you expect the in winery tourism). The wines (especially the reds which are mostly all dry/sec) are very high quality and wonderful in taste many having won European awards. The highlight was our tour guide Kristina Stamatova (please ask for her for an English tour). She explains every detail in clear terms and makes you feel very welcome! Cheers to her professionalism!

Fantastic wine tour and tasting here yesterday with amazing guide Kristina. Super friendly, informative tour of the winery - didn’t book, just turned up and had the place to ourselves. Impeccable English spoken and we were made to feel so welcome. Tour and tasting of one wine is 5BGN, 15BGN for 4 wines plus snacks, 20BGN for 5. Great value. All around a brilliant experience, thank you!
