品酒筆記：
(Robert Parker's rating: 89 points)
這是一款可愛的葡萄酒……它的結構給我留下深刻的印象。感覺細緻，隨着空氣展現出性格：精緻、優雅、愉悅、有趣而悠長。這可以說是Enira Reserva在深度、結構和橡木方面的升級版。如果可以在橡木桶中更長時間就更美妙，但它已足以令你對保加利亞酒另眼相看。

Enira is the wine made in Bessa Valley

We, the wine-makers from Bessa Valley, are inspired by this place as much as the Bessians were 2500 years ago.Now we are the Bessians! It is our destiny to grow the vines of the Valley and make great wine from their fruit year after year. Everything is done with the greatest respect for the nature, the people, the vines and its fruit. We are not in a hurry. We are not losing the harmony.

“Our wine is for pleasure – we serve it before dinner and during dinner. I’ve chosen Bulgaria because of the magnificent terroir. With Enira we revive the image of the Bulgarian wines worldwide. I can’t find competitive wine internationally like Enira.

Count Stephan von Neipperg (Owner of Ch. Canon la Gaffeliere (Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classe B), La Mondotte)

This is a lovely wine...Its structure, which impressed me initially, is very fine, though, and this has some character, too, which comes out with air. As it airs out, it seems refined, classy and graceful and remained persistent and interesting. This is an upgrade over the Enira Reserva in terms of depth and structure…and oak. The wine should integrate its oak a little better with a little more time, and needs to do so. However you look at it, it is going to add to the re-evaluation of what it means to be Bulgarian wine.
