Chateau Ruco winery opened doors in the village of Hadji Dimitrovo (in the Yambol region). SAPARD provided 50% of the BGN 2,854,867 needed for the project. The facility and the equipment - some of it imported from Italy and some domestically manufactured, were made possible after the release of a credit by the Municipal Bank-Sofia. The winery can process 3,000 tonnes of grape. It will employ 50 workers. The joint stock company that runs the winery owns 300 ha of vineyards with Cabarnet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes.
