The founding fathers of the modern Romanian wine
Vinarte
Soare Cabernet Sauvignon, Bolovanu Cabernet Sauvignon and Prince Mircea Merlot are the first iconic VINARTE wines consecrated in Romania, in the last decade of the 20th century and the beginning of the 2000s. They brought the company the recognition as a specialist in red wines that they still enjoy today, without ceasing. Along with the red ones, the sweet wine Sirena Dunării – obtained from grapes ennobled in exceptional years by exposure to the noble rot Botrytis Cinerea – demonstrated the special potential of the winery in the field of white wines. All these legendary names – which are, practically, the equivalent of the Gotha Almanac of Romanian noble wines – are the results of the vision, philosophy, investments and work of the people from VINARTE. A producer whose history is practically confused with that of modern wine in Romania, at the highest level.
Even if on the current territory of Romania wine has been produced incessantly for about 5,000 years, only since 1998 names like Soare, Bolovanu, Prince Mircea, Sirena Dunării etc. have introduced and imposed, in the most concrete way – namely through examples – the criteria of quality according to which oenological values are judged today in Romania, as in the rest of the world.
Romania, revealed to the world and time through VINARTE wines
The comprehensive vision on the international wine market was one of the characteristics of VINARTE, the company being founded by shareholders anchored in the tradition of countries with viticultural recognition and animated by the enthusiasm of innovation and openness to a global audience. The winery exports to over 10 countries on three continents, among which the most important are the Netherlands, Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Poland, USA, Canada, the Philippines, China, Japan, Korea, etc.
The winery’s wine cellar, permanently cared for as a real treasure, is a testimony that VINARTE wines successfully pass the test of time, being permanently in the sights of professionals, collectors and consumers approved in the field.According to the custom of the big houses, the winery maintains its reputation by deeds: the owners of bottles from older harvest years are regularly invited to check and maintain their collection – by tasting, supplementing and replenishing under the supervision and with the help of winemaker Justin Urucu, resident at Vinarte since 1998.It should be noted that not every year the value of the harvest rises to the level of self-imposed standards, and in these cases the top wines are not placed on the market – also as a guarantee that when someone drinks one of the top of the range VINARTE benefits from the best experience that the year and the winery can offer.
