Celebrating young wine in the village of Kolena

Residents and guests of the village of Kolena, Stara Zagora Municipality, gather for the Young Wine Festival.

The event was celebrated for the first time in 2017, and a few years later the local teacher and winemaker Martin Slavov gave the festival its name.

Young wine will flow to the sounds of a folk orchestra, soloists will sing, and guests will also enjoy the merry spirit brought by folklore dance groups. 

The festival is organised in cooperation with the local Community Centre and the Stara Zagora Municipality.
