These are bottles chosen for character\, identity\, and how well they work at the table. \nAt the tasting you can expect:\n· A focused selection drawn from our full portfolio\n· The chance to meet visiting winemakers and speak directly with the people behind the wines\n· A range shaped specifically for the on-trade: expressive\, food-friendly wines with a genuine point of difference\n· Producers whose wines are selectively listed\, allowing sommeliers to work with bottles that feel personal rather than ubiquitous \nProducers attending include:\nArgatia (Naoussa\, Greece)\nAya Estate (Struma Valley\, Bulgaria)\nBioVio (Albenga\, Liguria\, Italy)\nBorgo Paglianetto (Matelica\, Marche\, Italy)\nBottled Opinions (Bulgaria)\nBratanov Winery (South Sakar\, Bulgaria)\nClos Figueras (Priorat and Montsant\, Spain)\nCornarea (Roero\, Piedmont\, Italy)\nIvo Varbanov (South Sakar\, Bulgaria)\nJoannes Protner (Maribor\, Slovenia)\nKetri (Bulgaria)\nLa Rasina (Montalcino\, Tuscany\, Italy)\nLuigi Mauro (Dolceacqua\, Liguria\, Italy)\nMarash Winery (Black Sea\, Bulgaria)\nMasseria Jorche (Manduria\, Puglia\, Italy)\nMontelio (Oltrepò Pavese\, Lombardy\, Italy)\nMoroder (Conero\, Marche\, Italy)\nMuri-Gries (Alto Adige\, Italy)\nNirasca (Ormea\, Liguria\, Italy)\nPalari (Faro and Etna\, Sicily\, Italy)\nPertinace (Barbaresco\, Piedmont\, Italy)\nPietra del Focolare (Colli di Luni\, Liguria\, Italy)\nPrediomagno (Monferrato\, Piedmont\, Italy)\nRonco dei Tassi (Collio\, Friuli\, Italy)\nRossidi (Thracian Lowlands\, Bulgaria)\nSchloss Englar (Alto Adige\, Italy)\nSpadafora (Camporeale\, Sicily\, Italy)\nTerra Thiva (Central Greece\, Greece)\nTerre Boscaratto (Valdobbiadene\, Veneto\, Italy)\nTre Monti (Emilia-Romagna\, Italy)\nVini La Quercia (Colline Teramane\, Abruzzo\, Italy)\nZanut (Brda\, Slovenia) \nREGISTER NOW >> via EventBrite URL:https://sommelieredit.com/event/ivo-varbanov-wines-selection-portfolio-tasting/ LOCATION:Bulgarian Cultural Institute\, 186-188 Queen's Gate\, London\, SW7 5HL CATEGORIES:Tasting Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sommelieredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Ivo-Varbanov-tasting-2026-1.jpg GEO:51.5000091;-0.1795464 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bulgarian Cultural Institute 186-188 Queen's Gate London SW7 5HL;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=186-188 Queen's Gate:geo:-0.1795464,51.5000091 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260303T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260303T170000 DTSTAMP:20260404T173137 CREATED:20260205T163746Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260205T163746Z UID:10000079-1772532000-1772557200@sommelieredit.com SUMMARY:Mentzendorff Portfolio Tasting DESCRIPTION:Mentzendorff is thrilled to extend an invitation to its Annual Portfolio Tasting – our flagship event of the year.\nThis exclusive gathering will bring together world-renowned winemakers from our Portfolio\, providing you with the incredible opportunity to explore our diverse selection of champagne\, wine\, fortified wine\, spirits\, and so much more. \nMasterclass 3 – Three Decades of Vintage Port\nThree Decades of Vintage Port brings together three of the Douro’s most iconic houses – Taylor’s\, Fonseca\, and Croft – for a rare comparative tasting spanning 1997\, 2007\, and 2017.
