Kalin outlines the... - Kalin outlines the history of wine production in Bulgaria from anicent times up to present day. Wine production is like the history of this country with various rulers affecting wine production. We tasted 5 different wines, including orange and natural wines. All the wines tasted we're using native grape vararties and from small producers, even some that Kalin made himself. All very good.Wines were accompanied with local cheeses. A very enjoyable evening and even brought a few bottles to bring home. If you have any interest in trying wines from Bulgaria when in Sofia you must do this experience. Thank you Kalin

Delicious introduction to wine and cheese - The wine tasting was very nice. It's a tasting at the vinotheque. There were a total of 4 participants. The host talks enthusiastically about the (history of) Bulgarian wine. Even more beautiful we found the introduction to wines unknown to us. Very, very nice. In addition to the wine, you will be introduced to a number of Bulgarian cheeses. Recommended!

Good wines! - We enjoyed the tasting session very much. Wines presented was mostly made for the shop, so they surely know what they are doing :). Entising selection of wines and new informations about bulgarian history of wine. This is also the first time we are introduced to the orage wine, very interesting! Took home a pair of wines with us. Hopefully it will be as good as when we tasted them. But perhaps less, while we do not bring home those delicous cheeses, which also presented during the tasting! :( Thank you for the hospitality! :)

Small Batch Wine - Kalin was very knowledgeable about Bulgarian wines. He shared his knowledge of the regional differences along with samples of the wines from various regions. The samples included wines that he is making himself in small batches, which was a unique touch.

Wine tasting with characteristics. - Kalin provided a good time in his Tempus Vini wine shop in Sofia. He introduced wine production in Bulgaria, knowledge on wine classification and tasting. We drank 5 kinds of wines, including red, orange, and while wines. Some of the wine were actually produced by Kalin and with distinguished taste. I enjoyed the time.
