What is Cathargina? In 2004, Christoph Trilinsky founded Catalgina in 2004 on the ancient Thrace land called NO MAN'S LAND, north of the Bulgarian-Greek border, which was inaccessible to people for many years. Trilinski, who loves nature and people, saw grapes as a manifestation of soil, sunlight, breeze, and mental imagery, and decided to devote his heart and soul to transforming the best parts of them into wine. Dionysus (Bacchus), the god of wine, originated from the god of wine who was revered in Thrace. In the Norman's Land, now Svilengrad, the ancient Thracians made wine thousands of years ago. The reason why winemaking began in this No Man's Land was not because the climate was optimal for grapes. It has a temperate climate, and the temperature does not drop too much in winter, and the annual solar radiation is the largest in Bulgaria. It is a pristine border zone between Bulgaria and Greece and Turkey, and the nearby Mezek is home to the tomb of an ancient Thracian king famous for its winemaking, which shows that this place is the wine land of choice. Supporting the backbone of the winery are the twin Kisiov brothers, Svilen and Ivan, young winemakers. Their dream is to continue the ancient winemaking tradition of the Normansland and once again introduce this unique Thracian wine to the world.
