This story is about making a choice between the meg dynamics of modern life and the fascinating romance of wine and the provincial idyll. A story that arises after a series of casual encounters, but not by accident ...
The idea behind ​​the "Chateau Des Bergers" adventure came to its founder suddenly, when captured by the memories among the ancient and familiar landscape of his childhood, he suddenly realized he had been longing for it for so long. A dusty bottle of dark wine found in the enchanting coolness of the old grandfather's house in the village of Ovcharovo showed him the direction his life needed to take.
Shortly after, an occasional encounter with Paul Bord, a specialist and enologist who came straight from the homeland of wine - Bordeaux, France, provoked him to realize again that the trail he wanted to leave was another, more significant ...
The signs followed one after another and soon the decision to restore the deserted vineyards near the village was taken. The enthusiasm of a beginner, the experience of the French consultant and the invaluable help of partners were that decisive element that turned the wheel on the road to Chateau des Bergèrs.
