The family-owned Melnik Wine Villa is located about 8 kilometers from the town Melnik. Here on this 30 hector plot, a wide variety of typical Bulgarian strains of grapes are produced (including Shiposhka Melnishka vine, and Mavrud) as well as some international strains. The owners have developed their own methods for the production and storage of the grapes. Tourists can visit and look around the winery with a special guide, taste the wines and learn more about the techniques used to produce them. Don’t be surprised if the owners come and have a drink with you, and ask you for your opinion and impression of the wine.
