This is my first experience at a Bulgarian wine, and I was fairly pleased with the experience. Dark garnet color with a fairly closed nose, almost to the point of being aromatically challenged. Nice and fruity on the palate, though, with plenty of plum and strawberry jam flavors up front. Moderate tannins, with a short finish. Hints of mild oak and vanilla went well with both the steak and the pork chops.
