Georgiev-Milkov Mixtape Red 2023

Georgiev & Milkov is a Bulgarian wine project founded in 2014 by oenologists Petar Georgiev and Radostin Milkov. Both graduates of the University of Food Technology in Plovdiv, they have garnered extensive international winemaking experience in countries such as Austria, Malta, the United States, New Zealand, and China. Their shared passion for Bulgarian indigenous grape varieties led them to establish this venture, aiming to showcase the contemporary potential of local cultivars.

The duo focuses on sourcing grapes from old vineyards in the Plovdiv region, particularly emphasising varieties like Mavrud from Novi Izvor and Rubin from Brestovitsa. Their commitment to expressing the authentic character of these grapes involves meticulous vineyard selection and minimal intervention winemaking techniques. Notably, they do not own vineyards but collaborate closely with local growers to ensure high-quality fruit.
