Soft blackberry, cinnamon and pepper aromas lead flavors of juicy berry and savory spice in this Merlot from Bulgaria. Good tannins and structure give the wine ageability, which will also temper its oaky character. Overall, an impressive effort from an emerging region.  — S.K.  (5/1/2009)

Harmonious on the nose and palate with ripe black plums and cassis enveloped by a layer of char and smoke. Medium to full bodied with structured acidity, it’s a straightforward but sound Merlot with powdery, soft tannins and a tasty black cherry and graham cracker finish.  — A.I.  (9/1/2011)

Vini 2008 Veni Vidi Vici Cabernet Sauvignon (Thracian Valley)

  • Best Buy
  1. $8
Herbaceous notes of dill and green wood converge with ripe, sweet plum and spice aromas on this medium-bodied, bargain Bulgarian Cabernet Sauvignon. Although initially soft with notes of sweet blackberry, it gains earthiness in the midpalate. Firm tannins offer structure, but the vanilla finish drops a bit abruptly.  — A.I.  (12/1/2010)
