Viticulture and Vinification
Feteascã Neagrã grapes are fermented on skins for 5-7 days. They are pressed while still slightly sweet and the final amount of sugar which remains later ferments out off-skins. The timing of pressing is used to control the quality of the tannins extracted into the final wine. Too much time would leave a wine without fruit and dried out, too little, and some of the vital important flavour and color could be left behind in the skins.
Tasting notes
Light lavender red, good limpidity. Dense aromas of slightly dried plums (glazed), sour cherries. Medium attack, a velvet wine with good acidity, reduced and pleasant tannins and slightly bitter finish that helps salivation and resuscitates the aromas on the tongue.
We recommend this wine with:
Semi-hard cheeses, Romanian snacks (meatballs, sausages, stuffed aubergines), chicken ragout, Moldavian tochitura, roasted or grilled pork, plum dumplings.
Serving temperature: 14°C – 16°C
