Who are we?
Yalovo Winery
About the winery
Yalovo Winery is a small boutique winery nestled in the foothills of the Balkan Mountains, 15 kilometers from Veliko Tarnovo. Ignited by the common flame of their love for wine, visionary Anton Tanev and oenologist Dimitar Dimov embarked on this adventure with the desire to create wines with character, expressing the beauty of the region and their shared vision of wine making. The wines of Yalovo Winery have the ambition to recall the traditions and the past, combining pure techniques and aesthetics in an artisanal production!

For the vineyards
For our wines, we select plots of vineyards from growers with whom we work closely and ensure the best development of the fruit so that it conveys its character in the wine. At the same time, we have started to establish our own vineyards. Our objectives, in addition to securing raw material, are also to revive traditional local varieties and old cultivation techniques, and to preserve the biodiversity of the region. The first parcel has already been planted with Smoked, Pamid, Gamza, Ruby and Chardonnay. We are also preparing other plots for which, in addition to these varieties, we will try to find the forgotten Kokorko, Vinenka, Varna Mavrud... Our plantings have narrow rows (1.7 m) at a density of 653 vines per hectare, which brings us closer to the old traditional viticulture.
