Winemaker / Tasting Notes

Spreading approximately 155 square miles over Sub Carpathian Hills, the renowned Dealu Mare region is the most compact wine producing region in Romania. Dealu Mare (the Big Hill) has long been considered the original birthplace of red wines of exceptional quality. A dry red wine with good structure & balance, the nose evokes aromas of plums, ripe currants, and black cherries. On the palate, subtle notes of spices and vanilla are complemented by soft tannins. Ideal for pairing with beef, lamb, & prok dishes as well as Grilled Vegetables & Sharp Cheddar Cheese.
