This Moldovan white offers value and a great bang for the buck, with its fresh, fragrant nose and fun, assertive flavors. Buoyed by minerality, the citrus and spice on the palate offer clean quenching on a hot day. Not terribly elegant, but it doesn’t need to be.

Black pepper, cinnamon and clove spice meet balanced fruit expression in this elegant Cab from Moldova. The wine is balanced and friendly, but exhibits a reserved edge that makes it especially good with varied foods.

Soft aromas of tobacco, game and spice are followed on the palate with smooth, balanced Merlot flavors and a touch of smoke. An easydrinking wine from an interesting region.

A touch of rounded Chardonnay flavors and aromas appear in this Moldovan white, but the overall character is lean and slightly flimsy. The wine needs muscle, though the fruit is good.
