Description
In a nutshell:
A great value fresh and fruity, dry Romanian rosé that's a joy to drink.
The lowdown:
Not always thought of as a major wine producing nation Romania does in fact have an ancient heritage. They still produce traditional wines made from indigenous varieties but these days, with significant foreign investment, high quality wines are increasingly being made from international grape varieties. One such company is Cramele Recas which Englishman Philip Cox has turned into probably Romania's most successful winery. Their Solara Rosé is a perfect example of their art. It's a fruity blend of Merlot and local variety Feteasca Neagra of which only free run juice is used. This give it the pale colour and subtle flavours. It has a pleasingly soft mouthfeel with lovely strawberry and ripe red fruit flavours balanced with a crisp acidity. At the zesty finish theres a touch of spice which makes it nicely stimulating.
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:
Easy to enjoy this makes a perfect aperitif or lunchtime wine, and would also pair well with some a bit spicy like a Thai red curry.
Suitable for Vegans
