The annual production level of app. 400,000 bottles enables the maintenance of strict quality control in all stages of the process.
The winery itself, located on the far border of the village of Sopot, is a modern building perfectly integrated into the surrounding area. The wine tasting area, which is part of the winery, is surrounded on three sides with vineyards and has wonderful views of the surrounding hills covered with vineyards.
The high-quality wines produced by POPOV Winery are wines of character representing the combination of modern technology and knowledge of the traditional methods which have been practiced for centuries in the Tikvesh region.
POPOV reds are particularly full, with a long-lingering taste. The use of small oak barrels (barriques) for maturing has been practiced since the establishment of the winery and is used on almost half of the red wines. It gives the wines complex spicy aromas and smooth texture. It also prolongs the peak of the wines, making them rise in quality over the years. Served in an appropriate glass, they need only a few moments to give out their wonderful aromas and show their best qualities.
POPOV whites are elegant with aromas that will appeal to you from the first drop. Their freshness, fruitiness and flowery aromas linger long in the mouth.
Each wine is represented by characteristics typical of the variety it is produced of.
