Melnik The variety called Broad-leaved vine of Melnik, known also as Melnik, is one of the oldest varieties and unique for Bulgaria. It is grown exclusively around Melnik, the smallest city in Bulgaria. Melnik wines were known as one of Sir Winston Churchill’s favorite choices as he was buying two barrels from the Region per year. Melnik is a late-ripening variety, the vintage is in the middle of October. It is supposed that the Thracians brought the variety over from Asia in 2000 B.C. Proof of it can be found in the antique epos, where Homer mentions in the "Iliad" the wonderful elixir, brought from Thrace. The wines from this variety are fruity, with soft tannins, and with a typical taste of the variety. The grapes are small, with thin blue skin and broad leaves, which can be up to 23 cm in diameter. Some wines have the aroma of tobacco and leather, and are suitable for aging in oak barrels, which will bring out warmth and sophistication in the taste. These southern wines impress at first with their deep ruby color and with the characteristic aroma, Madeira-like taste and high alcohol. This combination makes Melnik wines suitable for several years aging.
