With a history spanning over 6,000 years, Romania’s winemaking heritage is among the oldest globally. Medieval periods saw the empirical selection of many native grape varieties, which now serve as iconic exemplars of Romania’s different wine regions.
- LacertA Winery - We will visit one of the most popural wine regions in Romania - Dealu Mare.
Our stop will be at Lacerta winery. The 82 ha of sunbathed vineyards making wine assortments with numerous gold medals at specialty contests, the architectural experience and the 7000 years of wine history of the place make Lacerta Winery a must-feel experience. As a proof of the perfect symbiosis between mineral, vegetal and animal life, lizards make their way through the brownish and limestone clay soils, the perfect conditions for wine, and then linger on the sunny side.
The alternative winery is Rotenberg, located in the same region, total plantation area of 23ha, a soil rich in siliceous clays and climatic conditions are very similar to those in Bordeaux or Tuscany, which is why Merlot wines obtained in such climatic conditions are extremely fruitful, expressive and powerful.
Then, we will visit the amazing Neo-Renaissance castle in the Carpathian Mountains, near Sinaia, in Prahova County, Romania, on an existing medieval route linking Transylvania and Wallachia, built between 1873 and 1914. Its inauguration was held in 1883. It was constructed for King Carol I.
