A Journey Through the Vineyards of Tohani and Dealu Mare

The allure of Romanian wine has long intrigued me, and the promise of a private tasting in the Tohani and Dealu Mare regions was an invitation I could not resist. As a seasoned traveler and wine enthusiast, I have traversed the vineyards of France and Italy, but the whispers of Romania’s hidden gems beckoned me to explore further.

The journey began with a scenic drive from Bucharest, the cityscape gradually giving way to rolling hills and lush vineyards. The anticipation built as we approached the first stop, the UNICOM Production SRL at Davino. Here, the air was thick with the scent of ripening grapes, and the sun cast a golden hue over the landscape. Our guide, a passionate viticulturist, led us through the winery, sharing tales of the region’s rich history and the meticulous process that goes into crafting each bottle of wine.

The tasting commenced with a selection of five exquisite wines, each a testament to the artistry and dedication of the winemakers. From the crisp Iacob to the robust Domaine Ceptura Rouge, every sip was a revelation. Paired with a platter of cheeses and prosciutto, the flavors danced on my palate, a harmonious symphony of taste and texture.

The Elegance of Velvet Winery

Our next destination was the Velvet Winery, nestled in the heart of the Tohani region. Known for its elegance and refinement, Velvet wines are a true embodiment of the terroir and heritage of this historic winemaking area. As we arrived, the breathtaking view of the vineyards stretched out before us, a sea of green under the azure sky.

The tasting here was an intimate affair, guided by a knowledgeable sommelier who shared insights into the unique characteristics of each varietal. The wines, crafted with precision and passion, captured the essence of the region, each glass telling a story of the land and its people. Accompanied by cold aperitivos of cheese, grapes, and prosciutto, the experience was nothing short of sublime.

A leisurely stroll through the vineyards led us to a tranquil lake, where sunbeds awaited for a moment of relaxation. The gentle breeze carried the scent of the vines, and as I lay back, I felt a profound connection to the land and its timeless beauty.

As the day drew to a close, I reflected on the magic of the Tohani and Dealu Mare regions. This journey was more than a wine tasting; it was an exploration of culture, tradition, and the passion that fuels the art of winemaking. The dedication of the viticulturists and winemakers was evident in every glass, a testament to their commitment to excellence.
