Characteristics
About the variety
Broadleaf Melnik Vine is an indigenous grape that has thrived in the Melnik region for thousands of years. A late-ripening variety named after its broad leaves, it produces light to medium-bodied wines with freshness and elegance. Thanks to its high acidity, it is also exceptionally suitable for rosé wines.
