Description
In a nutshell:
A bright, light and fruity, natural 'Vin de Soif' (thirst quenching wine) from Romania.
The lowdown:
Made from organically farmed grapes and with little intervention in the winery this juicy red is almost Beaujolais in style. The whole bunches of grapes are left to ferment naturally in the winery over three weeks and the wine is bottled without filtration, fining or, unusually, the addition of sulphur. The results are a light red packed with strawberry, bubblegum and ripe red cherry flavours matched with refreshing acidity.
The Producer:
Cramele Recas, located just outside Timisoara in western Romania, has undergone a remarkable transformation since the early 2000s under the leadership of Bristolian Philip Cox and his Romanian wife, Elvira. Their 700-hectare estate has become one of the largest wine producers in the country, crafting a vast array of wines. Combining ancient terroir with modern, quality-focused production methods, Cramele Recas delivers excellent, affordable wines that are gaining international recognition. They successfully cultivate both indigenous and international grape varieties, offering everything from approachable entry-level wines to premium cuvées that rival top-tier wines from regions around the globe.
When to drink:
This wine is best served slightly chilled and simply glugged down to slake your thirst.
Suitable for Vegans, Biodynamic
