Cramele Recaș, ‘Solara’, Orange Wine

Viile Timisului | Romania

A complex and structured wine, with elegant but discreet fruit flavours of stone fruits, backed up with a powerful tannin structure and long finish. A natural minimal intervention wine which is well balanced and structured yet pure and incredibly fresh.

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.

Food Pairing
