site.btaChukara Winery to Offer New Chardonnay in Autumn

BTA will present dozens of Bulgarian wineries in the New BG WINE Leads the Way series ahead of the 9th UN Global Conference on Wine Tourism, which will be hosted in Plovdiv. The forum is organized by the Ministry of Tourism in partnership with the UN World Tourism Organization.

Chukara Winery told BTA that in the autumn it plans to release a new Chardonnay aged in oak barrels, while next year it opted for Syrah, which is currently being processed. The winery is also preparing a Muscat rakia.

Chukara pointed out that despite the challenges of this year's weather conditions, the fact that it relies on a variety of vineyards across the country allows it to choose the best of the harvest. This enables the winery to guarantee high quality and offer wines with rich flavour and character.

Chukara is participating in a project to upgrade the winery financed by the State Fund Agriculture, which includes new laboratory equipment for analysis. The winery also plans to buy ten new French oak barrels.

Chukara plans to participate in competitions and festivals such as DiVino and Vinaria in Plovdiv, as well as various local events, as this provides an opportunity to present the wines to a wide audience and gain recognition for their quality.

The winery offers daily tours and wine tastings. Guests of Wine & SPA Hotel Chukara were recently treated to an event Honey and Wine which had them pair wines with bee products.

Chukara Winery is a boutique winery located in the Tryavna Balkan Mountain Range. Founded in 2019, its main goal is to create limited editions of expressive wines that preserve the distinctive characteristics of the Bulgarian terroir. To make their wines, the winery's team of professionals carefully selects high-quality grapes from the country's well-known wine-growing regions.
