Bulgarian Wines - Reviews Jancis Robinson

All over the world people meet spring with joy and new hope, but it is only in Bulgaria where it is saved as an ancient custom. The name of this festive day is Baba Marta in Bulgarian and means “Grandma March”. If you are walking along the streets in Bulgaria on the 1st of March you will witness many smiling faces. But first of all your eyes will be captured by Martenitsa.

Plovdiv is the first Bulgarian city to take on the mantel of European Capital of Culture. This beautiful Bulgarian city of Plovdiv is also one of the oldest in Europe. The slogan of the city is 'Antique and Eternal'. Located in south-central Bulgaria, Plovdiv is not only an important administrative, industrial and cultural centre, with many universities, various colleges, institutes and museums, but also the birthplace of lots of great wines.
