JRE JRE-Jeunes Restaurateurs

In the restaurant, Chef Kalev is unfolding his philosophy that modern cuisine is built on the best of traditions and organic terroir products.

Kitchen

The restaurant’s name is a hint to what defines it as a luxurious venue – aEstivum is the Latin name of summer truffles. You can relish the taste of truffles in different dishes – from salads to desserts. Our terroir’s menu combines the best of the local tastes and products and the international gourmet trends. It evolves with the seasons and the inspiration of our chef.

Surroundings

A unique combination of natural beauties, history, cultural heritage and winemaking turn the Melnik region into an attractive and diverse destination. You can make a journey back in history and see the variety of museums in the towns close to the Estate, or explore the wine routs and the cellars scattered around the neighbouring hills, or you can choose to dive in religion or mysticism, to cross the border with Greece or to climb the mountains and enjoy the scenery. Wherever you decide to spend the day, a return at our Estate will immerse you in homey coziness and complete relaxation.

Hotel

Zornitza Family Estate Relais & Châteaux is a unique place for vacation and relaxation. Picturesque stone buildings with timber beams, red bricks and artistic design describe the interior of the six villas and boutique hotel built in Tuscany style. The 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding vineyards, the sand cliffs of Melnik and the mountain peaks is a natural end to the interior.
