Wine experts, sommelier and representatives of the tourism business have joined forces around this idea to make the wine variety, which is found only in Bulgaria, more recognizable at home and abroad. The initiative is of the Bulgarian Association of Wine Professionals, said Krasimira Kodukova from the organization during the 7th annual meeting of Travel Academy. The first celebration of the Bulgarian wine variety is planned to take place in 2021.
