Moldova - East Wine Region

The climatic symphony in Moldova, influenced by Eastern European nuances, orchestrates a melody of temperatures that dance gracefully between the vines. The mild embrace during the delicate flowering period, with temperatures ranging from 18.5 to 19.5 degrees Celsius, sets the stage for the annual winemaking crescendo. July's warmth at 21.4 degrees and August's sunlit embrace at 26.7 degrees create the perfect harmony, offering approximately 214 frost-free days each year.

As the vineyards gracefully ascend from 100 to 500 meters in altitude, the chernozem soils cradle the roots of ancient grape varieties. Moldova's viticultural heritage finds expression in unique wines crafted from indigenous treasures. In the hallowed Cotnari vineyard, Grasa de Cotnari and Francusa tell tales of centuries past. Meanwhile, the Husi vineyard lends its voice with Busuioaca de Bohotin and Zghihara de Husi, and Odobesti contributes the aromatic Plavaia and spirited Sarba. The Panciu vineyard, with its own narrative, showcases the noble Babeasca Neagra.

Traditional Romanian varieties, including the elegant Feteasca Alba, regal Feteasca Regala, aromatic Tamaioasa Romaneasca, and bold Feteasca Neagra, grace Moldova's vineyards, linking the past to the present. Each grapevine in Moldova whispers secrets of history, resilience, and the enduring passion of winemaking. Moldova, with its rich and diverse viticultural heritage, remains a storyteller, sharing the profound history of Romanian wine with every sip.
