Description
- Duration: 9 hours
On March 13, 2025, Bibendum turns 25 and celebrates the occasion with a one-ofa-
kind portfolio tasting under the motto You are family. As one of the oldest wine
importers in Bulgaria, Bibendum has in its portfolio some of the most renowned wineries
from the classic wine regions of the world. To show you this and to make sure that you
have never attended such a unique wine experience, we promise you one thing:
It will be epic!
The heart of Bibendum’s portfolio are the family estates and family members of
these exceptional wineries will present their wines behind these tables at the event. This
is an incredible opportunity to meet face to face some of the most famous personalities
in the wine world, who can tell you detailed and fascinating stories about each of their
wines. Some of these wineries have been part of Bibendum’s portfolio since the very
beginning, while others have helped the company grow, representing the most
remarkable wine regions in the world.
These relationships have shaped Bibendum’s philosophy as a wine importer and
created a vision to offer wines of exceptional quality from fascinating terroirs and truly
unique people behind them. Family in the wine world is synonymous with sustainability,
long-term planning and responsibility. Therefore, the portfolio tasting, in which we will
immerse ourselves, will reveal what not 25, but hundreds of years of experience,
tradition and vision for the future can show in a glass of wine. Of course, the full
Bibendum portfolio will be arranged for tasting, inspired by the idea of a professional
wine list, and you will have the opportunity to get to know our big family.
The Bibendum team believes that these are only the first 25 years and the best
belongs to the future. It is an honor to personally welcome the representatives of some
of the most prestigious wineries in the world. Join us and become part of our portfolio
