Description
In a nutshell:
Light, fresh, and fruity with crisp pear and citrus flavours, this Romanian Pinot Grigio is an easy-drinking pleasure.
The lowdown:
This Romanian Pinot Grigio has more going on than you might expect, with layers of flavour that make it seriously moreish. Romania's wine scene is really making waves these days, and this is one that shows why. Bursting with juicy grapefruit and peach on the nose, it follows up with loads of ripe melon and apple flavours. A zippy citrusy acidity keeps it light, crisp, and refreshing from start to finish. It's the kind of wine that's easy to love and with enough complexity to provide a satisfying drop.
The Producer:
Back in the late 1980s, as Romania began to emerge from behind the Iron Curtain, three families decided to take on a challenge: reviving a rundown, state-owned winery and 650 hectares of neglected vineyards. What started as a bold gamble has, thanks to Englishman Philip Cox and his Romanian wife Elvira, grown into Cramele Recas the most successful winery in Romania. Today, the estate is widely recognised for its scale, modernity, and an impressively diverse range of wines. From organic natural and orange wines to approachable everyday bottles, they focus on producing wines that consistently over-deliver. Despite their size, the ethos is rooted in quality and innovation, with state-of-the-art facilities that embrace both tradition and experimentation. Their open-minded approach, coupled with a skill for crafting wines with character, certainly sets them apart.
When to drink:
Perfect on its own, but it's also a great match for grilled chicken or pan-fried sea bass - the zippy citrus and ripe fruit flavours work brilliantly with lighter dishes.
Suitable for Vegans
