Branești Wine Cellars

The Brănești Winery is located inside an old limestone mine with galleries extending over a distance of 75 km and occupying an area of 75 ha.

The entire architecture is constructed at a 60 meters depth, which makes it possible to maintain a constant temperature of 12-14 degrees and 90-92% humidity all year round. Next to the natural conditions comes the skilfulness of people which transform the grapes into a Bahic beverage. The winery possesses about 800 ha of vineyards located in a beautiful forest area, on the coast of Orheiul Vechi village, but also in the Romanești and Tudora villages.

Most wine production is exported to China, USA, Poland, Germany, Romania, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Baltic States, etc.

The winery is pioneering the first underground hotel in Moldova and is developing a unique “Stone Age” tourist complex.

Here you can enjoy cave life away from the noise of modern civilization and eve-ryday worries.

Tourists will have the opportunity to discover the underground galleries, to taste wine in the rooms specially arranged for tastings, to rent places for wine storage, and to participate in cultural events, organised in the performance hall. Soon, the hotel rooms, the SPA area and Stone Age restaurant will also be ready, where no access to internet and telecommunications will exist, so that tourists can fully enjoy life in the cave (mobile con-nection will be available at the entrance to this complex).

Poiana

Poiana Winery

For hundreds of years, the inhabitants of our lands have been taming vines, this being a symbol of continuity and eternity. While our wines have become a bearer of the country’s fame all over the world, this fame, to some extent, has its origin in the Ulmu commune.

The Poiana Winery is located near the Ulmu village, in the middle of a wonderful mead-ow. The wine is produced from grapes originating from our own vineyard, cared for with great passion by our workers. The secret of a wine lies in the grapes. The grapes are manually harvested in mid-autumn from fruiting vineyards, ripe in the sun. This explains the noble taste of the wine.

The Poiana winery is surrounded by the most beautiful secular forests – Codru.
