Brilliant Experience Great Host - As a heathen when it comes to wine I found it really interesting. Learned a lit about Bulgaria as well as grapes and wine production. Got to try 5 very special wines with accompaning cheeses. Knowledge host, they have TWO venues on the same street, this the smaller one. Toilet is very tiny, so go to the loo before arriving.. highly recommend

Fantastic Bulgarian wines in an intimate and cosy setting. - Tempus Vini is a hidden gem in Sofia. The tasting felt personal and relaxed, with a great selection of unique Bulgarian wines you won’t find elsewhere. A highlight was the crowd favorite Pamid—light, fresh, and full of red berry notes, very easy to drink and quite different from heavier reds. The host, Kalin is very knowledgeable and made the experience both informative and fun without being too formal. The small group setting and cheese (from local producer) pairings added to the cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended if you want to discover something different from the usual wine regions.

Bulgarian wine and history - We had so much fun trying delicious Bulgarian wines and cheese! Kalin was very knowledgeable and made sure we had a solid understanding of the history of wine in Bulgaria, as well as the various wines we tried. I highly recommend this experience, whether you’re a dedicated wine connoisseur or just want to try something new.

Wines and more - The experience was not a simple tasting but an encounter with Bulgarian wine history and culture. Kalin has proved to be an experienced teacher and a great connoisseur of wines, even of the world. A journey not only of wine but also of typical Bulgarian flavors (he served us a cheese board) in accompaniment to the wines. If you want to have an experience that is not just tasting wines, book with him: it will be a meeting that you can also crown with the purchase and shipment of your favorites. Again Kalin was very professional in inquiring if the shipment had arrived and more importantly if the wines were intact

This experience was the... - This experience was the perfect introduction to Bulgarian wines! The wine was excellent (as were the cheese pairings), and Kalin provided a very informative overview of Bulgarian winemaking and its history. I ended up buying a bottle of orange wine from Kalin’s own private label.
