What To Expect
DiVes Winery is located close to the Town of Aheloy and Nesebar. It was built on the historic hill of Simeon’s Mound which has a magnificent view over the Black Sea coast between Aheloy and Pomorie.
Here, the Bulgarian king Simeon the Great defeated the Byzantine army in a battle in 917 A.D., thus affirming the power and position of Bulgaria. In honor of Simeon’s victory, we raised a monument named "The Eye of the Winner", which became a symbol for the winery and is invariably depicted on our wine label.
The highlights of the Special History and Wine tour are:
- The story of the Battle of Aheloy;
- A circular walk around the winery;
- Basic Wine production techniques;
- Combination of 6 excellent wines with 5 Bulgarian appetizers;
- Wonderful view over Nesebar, Aheloy, and Pomorie;
- Wine shop.
