The National Vine and Wine Chamber (NVWC) is a non-governmental association of all professionals engaged in vine- growing and wine- making in Bulgaria. It is the only association of its kind in the country. It was established in February 2000. The mission of the Chamber is to defend and promote the professional interests of its members as well as to guarantee and promote the quality, authenticity, and origin of wines.

For the first time, the government has delegated part of its powers to the non-governmental sector. The vine and wine chambers keep record of all vine growers and quality wine producers. They are also authorized to issue a certificate of origin to quality wines as well as a certificate of authenticity to grapes varieties. The chambers set up tasting committees to carry out the mandatory organoleptic analyses.

The NVWC defines the strategies for the development of vine- growing and wine- making and implements- the policies in the vine and wine industry. The associated community of Bulgarian vintners and wine makers is summoned to restore the reputation of Bulgarian wine by ensuring its competitiveness. By employing their expertise, emphasizing the advantages of the favourable geographical factors, and continuing the deep-rooted ancient tradition, the Bulgarian society of vintners demonstrates and confirms the strong assets of Bulgarian wines.
