Terroir is extremely important for the character and quality of wine. But viticulture is also very important. Wine is created in the vineyard: this is the philosophy of Midalidare. That is why caring for the vineyards comes first.
VINEYARD CARE
Wine is born in the vineyard. Quality production is a prerequisite for creating a valuable wine with character and individuality. That is why caring for the vineyards is of paramount importance to Midalidare. At the moment, 160 hectares of vineyards are carefully managed in the mansion. The hilly terrain allows for the planting of a variety of wine varieties in accordance with their individual requirements, which is a key part of the company’s philosophy.
An international team of highly qualified agronomists from Italy and Bulgaria takes care of the proper cultivation of the vineyards and the quality of the yield. Many viticulture operations are performed manually, with extreme attention to detail. Yields are regularly reduced in order to improve the characteristics of the grapes. The vineyards are equipped with monitoring, which allows proper management of the vineyards.
THE WAY OF WINE
The wine tour “On the Way of Wine” is held in the large eastern winery of the manor and tells in detail the technology of wine in Midalidare. The wine is born on the vineyards, so the journey starts from the Variety Library, where young vines of the wine grape varieties with which the winery works are planted and cared for with great care. The Midalidare Variety Library is a wonderful place where visitors can see Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gray, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Murveder, Merlot and Malbec. The guests get acquainted in detail with the unique terroir in the village of Mogilovo. The road passes through grape sorting, fermentation, aging and bottling of wine.
