Romanian - Moldavian Wine Tour

Wine is inseparable of the Romanian culture, an important component of our art and philosophy. During this tour you will meet, feel and taste the wines of one of the most famous regions in Romania, Moldavia. The history was cruel with this region, being splitted after the 2nd world war in two parts, one is the Romanian region of Moldova and the other being the old Basarabia, now known as Republic of Moldova. But both regions are linked by their famous and good wines! Come and meet the passion for the Moldavian wines; after visiting the biggest wine cellar in Europe and maybe in entire world, and tasting the wonderful Moldavian cuisine and music you will see that wine in Moldavia goes best with traditions, both still terribly appreciated in the European Culture!
