When you think of wine countries, Romania might not immediately spring to mind. But don't be fooled, this country has a winemaking tradition almost as old as France's. Although historically the country had fewer resources and expertise, meaning its wines were less well-known, things are changing. The Calusari Pinot Grigio is a perfect example: a wine that surprises in both quality and price. This refreshing Pinot Grigio from Calusari is a true discovery for any wine lover.

Cramele Recas: The epicentre of Romanian wine innovation

Romania's wine tradition is deeply rooted, but the focus has primarily been on local consumption. However, Cramele Recas, the producer of Calusari Pinot Grigio, has shaken up the international wine scene. About twenty years ago, British Philip Cox purchased centuries-old vineyards in northwestern Romania with the dream of producing high-quality wines. His winery, Cramele Recas, has since won numerous international awards, and the Calusari Pinot Grigio is a shining example.

The versatility of the Pinot Grigio grape

The Pinot Gris grape, better known as Pinot Grigio in Italy, is a multifaceted grape. Although it originated in France, it has spread throughout the world. Its naturally high sugar content and relatively low acidity make it a favorite in cooler climates. However, the Calusari Pinot Grigio, grown in the warmer regions of Romania, is anything but bland and sweet.

Tasting notes for the Calusari Pinot Grigio

Each grape used for Calusari Pinot Grigio is carefully selected to obtain only the finest juice. The result is a wine with a refreshing nose and rich flavors of pineapple and white peach. A subtle bitterness on the finish gives the Calusari Pinot Grigio that extra touch of character. Perfect for enjoying on the patio, but also an ideal accompaniment to tapas and light dishes.
