ORIGIN:
Fetească Neagră (or Black Maiden in English) is an old native variety that originates from Moldova and Muntenia and again is capable of producing some great wines of deep colour although the vine needs constant care. The later the grapes are picked the better the results and a constant trimming programme to arrest the vigour produce excellent results. Fetească Neagră is a bramble fruited red with hints of soft cherry. It can vary greatly depending on terroir and oak influence, some can be earthy while others can boast flavours of cappuccino and vanilla.
WINE MAKING PROCESS:
Grapes harvested during the first half of September, alcoholic fermentation occurs in vertical static stainless steel tank with automatic cap management. Skin maceration for 7 days at 27°-28°C. Pumping over few minutes every 3-4 h. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel. 10% of the blend had been aged in Romanian oak barriques.
TASTING:
Intense ruby, with dominant aromas of black and red fruits (blackberries, cranberries). Full body wine, elegant with spice notes and vanilla aftertaste. It is recommended to be served at 14-16°C. It will be well suited with barbecue, pasta or cheese.
