Thracian Valley Wine Tasting Experience from Plovdiv

Discover the rich wine traditions of the Thracian Valley on this short but unforgettable wine tasting trip from Plovdiv.

Just a short drive from the city, you will visit a boutique winery located at the foothills of the Rhodope Mountains in one of the oldest wine regions in the world. The Thracian Valley has a wine history dating back more than 5,000 years, when the ancient Thracians were already cultivating vines and producing wine.

Your experience begins with a comfortable transfer from Plovdiv to the winery. Upon arrival, a wine expert will guide you through the winery facilities, including the fermentation room, barrel aging cellar, and the tasting hall.

During the visit, you will learn about the winemaking process, local grape varieties, and the revival of Bulgarian wines in recent years.

The highlight of the tour is a guided tasting of 5 carefully selected local wines, including varieties made from traditional Bulgarian grapes such as Mavrud and Rubin, paired with delicious appetizers such as local cheese, bread, and salami.

If the weather allows, you may also enjoy a short walk through the surrounding vineyards while taking in the beautiful landscapes of the Thracian Valley.
