You taste five Bulgarian wines from local grapes you rarely find abroad, with local cheeses, bread and water, and Kalin tells you where each one comes from. No wine knowledge needed. It is €30 per person, in English or Bulgarian. Real people on WhatsApp book it for you and help plan the rest of your evening.

"We had an amazing tasting experience with Kalin. The 5 wines were all different and all excellent 👌 We weren't just given the standard mass produced wines found in supermarkets. The history and description of the terroir for the various regions was really well done. 3 paired cheeses and this was a really great experience. Highly recommended."
"We thoroughly enjoyed learning about Bulgarian wine history from Kalin yesterday and then trying five different Bulgarian wines plus three cheeses. The choice of wines were excellent and we appreciated Kalin’s gentle manner and expertise in this field ."
"Everything was wonderful. We tasted 5 very good wines, each with its own characteristics. We were explained about each one separately. And the cheeses were good. We even bought some of the wine we tasted, because we couldn't resist. The host is very nice."
"Fun wine tasting. The host was very knowledgeable about Bulgarian wines. We enjoyed trying the 5 wines and sampling the cheeses. It was nice to find out more about Bulgarian winemaking, and the wines tasted great. Highly recommend!"
Bulgaria has made wine for thousands of years, yet its own grapes are still little known abroad. This Bulgarian wine tasting is built around five of them, each from a different part of the country, poured one after another so you can taste how they differ.
Kalin opens the bottles himself and talks you through the wine regions, their history and how to judge what is in your glass. He starts from the basics, so it works just as well if you rarely drink wine. Local cheeses and bread sit next to each glass, so the pairing is part of the hour, not an afterthought. If you like a bottle, you can buy it in the shop.
The tasting is private, so only your group is at the table. It is one of the easiest things to book as wine tasting for couples in Sofia, and it works for friends on a city break and for colleagues after work.
