Bessa Valley Winery is located in the village of Ognianovo, in southern Bulgaria. The region was populated by Thracian tribes in ancient times and was the birthplace of legendary poet Orpheus, who supposedly charmed the vine-growers of the Rhodope Mountains with his harp.
The Rhodope Mountains are just to the south of Bessa Valley and provide the perfect terroir for a beautiful range of wines. The majority of grapes grown on the winery’s 140 hectares are Bordeaux varietals, which thrive in the continental climate. The Grande Cuvee is a meeting of worlds, Bordeaux, Rhone and Bessa Valley. Four varietals each make up a quarter of the blend - Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
The Grande Cuvee shows a rich fruity bouquet, replete with blackberry, plum and red cherry aromas, backed by vanilla nuances. It is dry, smooth and full-bodied, with wonderfully rounded tannins. On the palate, black and red fruits are joined by notes of mocha, pepper, rich leather and hints of caramel. It will be an excellent companion for a variety of rich meats, including lamb, pork and duck, or if you’re vegetarian, mushroom-based dishes and bitter greens.

Bessa Valley Grande Cuvee 2018
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
