Assenovgrad Mavrud Reserve | 0,75 l

Assenovgrad Mavrud Reserve has an intense ruby to garnet color. The nose is fruity and a combination of the grape Mavrud with the aromas of oak extracted from the barrels, vanilla and spices. After taste is rich, rounded, with good length. The flavor is persistent and impressively fruity.

Region:
From the Thracian Plain around the town of Assenovgrad come the choice grapes for this full-bodied red wine. The fine spirit is vinified in the winery Assenovgrad 100% from the old Bulgarian grape variety Mavrud. The fully ripe grapes are harvested by hand at the end of October and produce an intense, dry and tannic wine with excellent storage potential.

Winemaking:
For Mavrud Reserve, the hand-picked grapes are vinified in large stainless steel tanks. The red wine is then aged for 10-12 months in barrique barrels made of fine oak. During this process, the delicious spirit develops its varietal flavor and acquires a complex bouquet full of juicy red fruit.

Aromas:
In the glass, Mavrud Reserve reveals a rich ruby red color that fades to garnet red at the edges. The purebred spirit spoils the sense of smell with a spicy, ripe berry scent. Light nuances of oak play around the fruity bouquet. On the palate, the Mavrud Reserve reveals a full-bodied, soft body with a harmonious structure. Fruity aromas and delicate wood tones are also clearly present in the lingering finish.

Tasting Notes:
Briefly decanted, Mavrud Reserve is an excellent companion to hearty specialties from Bulgarian cuisine. This red spirit is also excellent with meat dishes and air-dried sausages such as Lukanka, spicy Sudzuk or Pastirma. You can perfectly finish a successful culinary evening with this red wine and ripe cheese.

Quality wine from Bulgaria with guaranteed designation of origin.
