Old Town - Romania is the world’s 12th largest wine producer with over 2000 years of viticulture tradition. We believe that knowledge of a region’s food and wine is intrinsic to understanding its culture. Thus, the next stop after the village museum is at one of Bucharest’s oldest wine bars and one of the first to be reopened afther the 89’ revolution.
The wine bar is located right next to Old Town in a century old manor and its traditional architecture, elegant interior and the wine bottles displayed like books on shelves all create a perfect setting for wine tasting.
