The Winemaking Women of Bulgaria - Tasting & Supper
£60.00
Wednesday 6th April 2022
7 - 9.30pm
Bulgaria today is an incredibly dynamic place and perhaps surprisingly, it may have the highest proportion of female winemakers of any country in the world. Almost half of the country’s wineries have women winemakers and there are a number of significant women owners too who shape the direction of their wineries.
This dinner will take a look at where Bulgarian wine is today as few people outside its borders know how different this modern era of the country’s wine is and we will try
7 wines which exist because of the hard work of six women these will be matched with a selection of food with Bulgarian influences.
The wines included will be
- A brut Riesling Pet Nat
- An ancient variety known as Tamianka
- Melnik (a new Caviste favourite) in both Rosé and Red
- Red blends to show off the diversity of Bulgarian wines
- Something sweet and strong
