Cabernet Franc at Chateau Burgozone is crafted with precision and respect for the terroir of the Danube Plain. Grown in the estate’s own vineyards near Oryahovo, the grapes benefit from the unique river-influenced microclimate and loess-rich soils that offer perfect conditions for this elegant varietal.

Grapes are manually harvested and hand-selected, ensuring only the best fruit makes it to fermentation. The wine undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by 9-12 months of aging in French oak barrels. This gentle approach highlights the delicate, nuanced nature of Cabernet Franc.

In the glass, the wine shows a sparkling ruby color with vibrant shine. The nose is rich and layered, with aromas of black forest fruits, raspberry leaves, light spice, and vanilla. On the palate, it’s well-balanced, full-bodied, and structured, with expressive notes of black cherry, spice, and earthy nuances in the long, elegant finish.

Produced by Château Burgozone, a benchmark in modern Bulgarian winemaking, this vegan, low-intervention wine reflects both tradition and innovation. It’s an ideal match for Italian cuisine, charcuterie, grilled meats, BBQ, and vegetarian dishes, making it a versatile choice for many occasions.
