Enjoy Wine and Food in Bulgaria! Wine has been known in the land of Bulgaria since ancient times. Archaeology, folklore, and literature provide ample evidence that wine grapes have thrived in these lands ever since the late Stone Age: grape growing and wine making were vital to the way of life of the Thracians, Romans, Greeks, Slavs and Bulgarians. The oldest Bulgarian wine cultures, existing nowadays and dating back to Thracian times – Pamid, Dimyat, Misket, Gamza, Mavrud and Broad Vine of Melnik grapevine- will be a part of this tour.
