Domeniile Cuza Rara Neagra-Cabernet

Domeniile Cuza hand harvest Rara Neagra and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from their clay soil vineyards in the Valul lui Traian microzone, an area with good humidity tempered by  breezes coming from the Black Sea and cool winds from the Prut River and its southern lakes. After slow pressing and fermentation, maturation occurs in different vessels before final assembly.

Ruby-red in colour, this wine shows intense aromas of berries, plums and black cherries, with slight hints of skin and sweet spices. The taste is dry, with firm and velvety tannins that balance the fresh acidity. The medium-long finish allows lingering fruitiness. Try with beef or lamb, spiced charcuterie, mushroom dishes, or young cheeses.

Domeniile Cuza are located in the Moldovan wine region of Valul lui Traian in the village of Alexandru Ioan Cuza. The soil and climate of the area suits the cultivation of vines and grape varieties have been grown in these lands for centuries. Domeniile Cuza feel it is their responsibility to continue this at the best of their abilities as technology and experience grow.
