A Bulgarian red wine made from the Melnik 55 grape, native to the Struma Valley. The variety is a 1963 cross between Broad-Leaved Melnik Vine and Valdiguié, planted mainly around Melnik and Sandanski. The wine spends 18 days on maceration, ferments at 28–30°C, then ages for eight months in French oak and six months in bottle. The nose offers black cherry, wild strawberry, resin, cracked pepper, vanilla, mint and eucalyptus. The palate is full-bodied with cherry, blueberry, tobacco, warm spice and stone minerality, framed by silky tannins and fresh acidity. The finish is medium-long with dark cherry, toasted nuts and bittersweet chocolate.
