Viile Timisului | Romania

Lighter in style and low in tannin with fragrant aromas that bring to mind autumn bonfires and forest walks. Smoky, juicy berry flavours throughout – this wine dances across the palate.

About the Producer

Back in 1988, three families decided to invest in a winery in Romania, starting with 650 hectares of slightly unloved vineyards and a rusty, once state-owned winery. Yet Englishman Philip Cox and his Romanian wife Elvira, have turned the Cramele Recas Estate into the most successful winery in Romania. Recas are now recognised globally for their impressive scale and breadth of fascinating wines, including natural and orange wine from organic grapes. Recas are in every way a modern, dynamic winery. The wine ferments naturally without the addition of yeasts, sulphur or any other additions. Bottled unfiltered and unfined.
