Suhindol is a town in north central Bulgaria,
part of Veliko Tarnovo Province. Its position
in the middle of the Danubian Plain creates
excellent conditions for growing wine grapes.
The local co-operative "Gamza"
is famous for producing wines from the local
vine with the same name. In addition, Suhindol
winemakers craft Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon,
as well as a local variety "Dimyat".
The town's proximity to a large dam on the
Rositsa river and to the foothills of the
Balkan Mountains make it a favourable tourist
destination. The Rositza River near this
town is known to hold "som" or
European Catfish and some of them reach
lengths of over 2 meters, especially the
ones that live in the dam Alexandar Stamboliiski.
