MO Chateau Purcari 1827 Ștefan Vodă IGP Rose

Château Purcari, located in the southwest of Moldova within the IGP Ștefan Vodă, benefits from rolling hills, limestone bedrock, and fertile black soil — an ideal terroir for grape cultivation. True values do not change with time. Purcari remains Purcari. Since 1827.

Reminiscent of a vibrant spring day, this vivacious and aromatic Moldovan rosé is composed of Cabernet Sauvignon along with a smaller amount of Merlot and the local Rara Neagra grape. The fruit grows close to the Black Sea where the cooling impact of the water helps to preserve plenty of freshness and fragrance in the grapes. To ensure they reach the winery in perfect condition all the grapes are harvested by hand and are vinified using traditional local winemaking techniques.
