Flavor Profile
There’s “hard to find,” … then there’s just plain rare. And what’s more exciting than cracking open a bottle of wine that’s both delicious and unlike anything you may have heard of before?
Enter, this lovely little number from Moldova. (Yep, you read that right.) Our first-ever Moldovan wine is a real doozy—a still “blanc de noirs,” a white made from all red grapes. In this case, we’re talking the King of the Reds, Cabernet Sauvignon.
Winemaker Marian Haraba is a master of the style, with the awards tally to prove it. She pressed the grapes gently, swiftly separating the clear juice from the thick, color-rich skins. Boasting a satisfying weight and roundness (similar to Viognier), Albastrele also delivers lovely freshness. It’s this kind of deft winemaking that’s earned Marian’s winery, Radacini, the 2020 Grand Prix for Best Winery in Moldova.
With its lovely label and versatility with food (chicken, pork, and seafood are all top matches), Albastrele will be right at home on your dinner table. Order yours today.
