Overview

During your personal tasting experience I will guide you through the distinctive world of Bulgarian wines. Although Bulgaria has been producing wine for 5000 years it is still relatively unknown to the rest of the world. Now a rising new generation of Bulgarian boutique winemakers are devoted to the craft and bringing new attention to our country.

You will taste 5 wine varieties of local grapes unique to Bulgaria, that can not be found anywhere else: Miskets, Melnik, Mavrud, Gumza and Rubin. Plus, local cheeses, artisanal bread and mineral water.
The tasting is held in one of the best boutique wine shops in Sofia – Tempus Vini, which is located on an artsy street in the city center, known for its fine restaurants and boutiques. And just a few streets away from Sofia’s main pedestrian boulevard.

During the tasting I can tell you about the wine regions of Bulgaria including the history and the wine culture of my beautiful country.

All tastings are held in English or Bulgarian

A pretty intestering selection of wine, accompanied by tasty cheese selection. I returned after a year with a friend as it was pretty cool back then. 😎

A very informative, interesting and delicious wine tasting, hosted by Kalin, including two small batch Tempus Vini wines and four other Bulgarian wines (two whites and four reds). I never realised, before visiting Bulgaria, how good Bulgarian wines are, and our tastings were perfectly paired with a selection of local cheeses. We couldn't help ourselves but to buy a few bottles to take home with us! Thank you again for the experience!

This wine store is packed with amazing wines from Bulgaria. The host was so pleasant and really knows the wines in the region. He also makes his own wines which were also very good. If you would like to understand the different regions in the area or just looking to experience some wine, please take the time and do a visit. Conveniently located.

From the moment we walked in the host was welcoming and inviting. We tasted many local wines paired with charcuterie. It was wonderful learning about the culture and the wines of Bulgaria.

The entire presentation was great. The wines were all local and the owner/sommelier was very knowledgeable and delightful.
