[edit] Buy

Wine, and see of you can discover why it was one of Winston Churchill's favourites.

[edit] Eat

Melnik has many taverns serving traditional Bulgarian meals.

[edit] Drink

Melnik wine is intended to be drunk while young, so try to find a tavern with a house wine.

There are planty 'hole-in-the-wall' cellars that are literaly holes inthe mel clay, which acts to keep the tepreture constant to aid in the wine making process. Here, you can taste the wine as it comes out the barrels.

[edit] Sleep

Many of the traditional houses now double as accommodation, run by locals.
