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.

Et Cetera

Et Cetera Winery

Et Cetera is a family adventure which turned into a winery owned by two brothers.

The story of the winery began in 2002, when Alexandru Luchianov, one of the brothers, bought fields in the South of the country now housing the vineyards, a restaurant, and a small hotel. Love and care are paramount for maintaining the well-being of a family, and this approach was also the guarantee of the success of “Et Cetera”.

Each stage of the wine production is carefully supervised by the family members: starting from the cultivation of grapes by organic methods, fermentation, and maturation in oak barrels, up to the stage when the final product is offered to the guests of the winery. The winery is equipped with modern winemaking technologies and uses production methods verified over the years. In this way “Et Cetera” obtains wines renowned for their unique fla-vours and taste, and by doing this it contributes to the development of the wine con-sumption culture in our country.

Products

Wine “Aeroplane Carmenere 2017”

This is a special and sensational wine of a dark ruby colour. The aromatic complexity, with nuances of spices: black pepper, green pepper, and cardamom are in perfect harmony with the aromas of carnation and forest berries. It is elegantly enriched by a full and velvety taste.

Wine “Cuvee Blanc 2017 Premium”

This is a blend of 4 grape varieties, fermented for 6 months in oak barrels. It is a fresh and balanced wine of a light golden shade, notes of pear, pomelo, white cherries, and vanilla. The special finesse of the wine comes from the mixture of its pleasant white fruit accents and oak hues.

Wine “Merlot 2014 Premium”

A 2014 vintage, the legendary Merlot reinvented itself, now being aged for 18 months in oak barrels. It has an intense ruby-red colour with brick reflections. Its aromatic imprint consists of dried sour-cherry scents, sour-cherry kernels, followed by nuances of dark chocolate and truffles. The soft and fruity taste is supplemented by discreet hues of maturation, extracted from the oak barrel wood, and the aftertaste is pleasant and long.

Crama Tudor

Crama Tudor

Crama Tudor of the winemaker Tudor Aghenie is located in the centre of the country, in the Sadova village, Călăraşi district.

Tudor Aghenie is a 6th generation of winemaker with a passion for wine production inher-ited from his ancestors – wealthy landlords, who used to own extensive estates in this re-gion. Even in those times, wines from Sadova used to be delivered in Europe.

In recent years, Tudor Aghenie managed to combine his passion as a skilled producer with the promotion of rural tourism. Situated in a picturesque natural setting, Crama Tu-dor is located at the edge of a forest, in close vicinity to the vineyards, making a perfect refuge for the guests. One can find several wooden houses, furnished in a traditional style, an oven where are cooked delicious stuffed vine leaves and pies, and a cellar with wines produced by the winemaker.

Originally, the place was intended for the vineyard workers to relax. Now, however, it has been turned into an important attraction for tourists eager to discover quality wines and traditional food prepared with love by Tudor Aghenie’s family.

Crama Mircesti

Crama Mircești

This is a winery one can rarely find in the Republic of Moldova. It is distinguished by a picturesque view called “Little Tuscany of Moldova”.

The vineyards here stretch on the Măgurii hills, within a unique region, suitable for the production of exceptional wines. Crama Mircești includes a white mansion, which once belonged to a landlord and which in 2011 was restored and brought back to life. It was at that same time when the first vine cuttings were planted.

At present, the vineyard covers an area of 15 hectares and as of 2020 the winery opened the doors of its own guesthouse with traditional cuisine. Crama Mircești is locat-ed 25 kilometres away from the city of Ungheni and 80 kilometres away from Chișinău, in the village with the same name – Mircești, one may say in the heart of the Republic of Moldova.

The climatic conditions here are comparable to the wine regions of southern Germany (Rhine Valley) and with those in northern Italy. Each variety is separately planted on the right slope exactly in the way it is done in the mentioned regions. In addition to Pinot Noir, Saperavi, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Riesling, we grow traditional local va-rieties with love and respect, such as Feteasca Neagră, Rara Neagră, Feteasca Regală and Feteasca Albă. Given the diverse assortment of varieties, we produce wide range of wines and also blends under the Crama Mircești and Bardul din Mircești brands.

We look forward to seeing you!

Asconi

Asconi Winery

Asconi is a family winery which was founded in 1994 and remains a family-owned business.

Our goal is to make a good wine using all available modern technologies maintaining traditions of previous generations. It is also our wish to share our achievements with local and foreign visitors of our company.

“All winemaking starts with grapes and an authentic winery should have its own vineyards. This is why we planted over 500 hectares of vines and that took us over 10 years. Our vineyards are located near Geamana village, in the Anenii Noi district, 10 kilometres from the winery. We produce a wide range of white, red, and dry rose wines, dessert wines and fortified wines. Most red wines are aged in 225 litre oak barrels. Primarily, we use only American or Hungarian oak and less – French oak. Most white wines fall into the fresh style category, except for Chardonnay and Riesling, which are fermented or matured in oak.”
