A Bulgarian company will make wine in New Zealand, money.bg reports. All technologists from the Bulgarian wine cellar are people who are open to the world and share one dream – of making wine in different parts of the world. Experts say that in different countries wine is made in different wats, and that the different varieties have different specifics. Making wine in another country provides the kind of experience that cannot be acquired if you only work in Bulgaria. Thanks to the knowledge about the region acquired, and the intricacies of winemaking in New Zealand, the winemakers from the company brought much of their knowhow back to Bulgaria. Two campaigns a year was a veritable challenge for them – working as the Bulgarians spring sets in, when grape picking in New Zealand is just starting, and then back to Bulgaria again in the autumn. In the process of their work they discovered there were many similarities with the terroir of the Bulgarian village of Mogilovo with its “inspiring nature and magnificent vineyards”, the winemakers say. In New Zealand, the company will make Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir wines which come from the regions in Marlboro and Central Otago.
