Following on from my last post (where a Romanian Pinot took a podium spot in a blind tasting) i went round to some Bulgarian colleagues house for a Bulgarian Feast. Fantastic cured meats and dips and a hot pot style dish.
They, very kindly, provided a drop of wine with it.
First up was a Todoroff Boutique Merlot 2013 from the Thracian region of Bulgaria. This wine was a very solid Merlot. Warm red fruits and infantly drinkable. Perhaps not the complexity or depth of some other Merlots but hard to pass up! 2.9/5
Onto the more exclusive Todoroff Galery Mavrud 2013. Now were talking! A bigger red, full of flavour and more complex. £14.99 from Vaskovino. 3.8/5
