Vino Culture

Plovdiv


Opening up from the blink-and-you'll-miss-it exterior is an airy brick-walled space where staff truly know their vintages. Delicious Bulgarian wines start at 2 lv per glass, while mixed Spanish and Italian tapas such as pan tumaca (tomato bread) and cured hams (from 3.30 lv) provide enough energy for you to sample another drop.
