Edoardo Miroglio Mavrud and Rubin Bio 2016

Thracian Valley, BulgariaThe organically grown and certified mavrud and rubin grapes combine 3000 years (mavrud) and 60-plus years (rubin) of indigenous growth in Bulgaria. You can expect a fresh, terroir-scented nose with cherries and currants. The wine is aged in oak for about six months in botti (French oak, 33 hl capacity) and Bulgarian oak barrels (500 l) adding a bit of texture and weight and just a hint of wood to the mix. The attack is juicy and fresh with intriguing earthy cran-cherry/red currant that fade into a forest floor finish. Ready to drink. Think sophisticated but affordable pizza/barbecue beef wine. Good value.Tasted: 12 October 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
