How to serve it
Tasting notes
Deep ruby red. Ripe blackberry, black cherry and plum on the nose with notes of spice, dried herbs and a gentle oak nuance from the barrel-aged half. The palate is full and structured, with the firm, ripe tannins typical of Mavrud, fresh acidity and a long, savoury finish.
About this wine
Sarva Mavrud 2019 comes from Dragomir, a small winery near Plovdiv founded by two oenologists and counted among the most consistently good producers in Bulgaria. Sarva is the winery's series dedicated to Bulgarian grape varieties, and Mavrud is the country's most celebrated indigenous red.
The wine is fined with zeolite, a natural mineral used instead of animal products, which makes it suitable for vegans. Half of the wine matured for 12 months in second-fill French oak barrels, while the other half stayed in stainless steel to preserve freshness and pure fruit.
Serve at 16–18 °C with grilled red meat, game, hearty stews and aged cheeses.
