The wine region of Dealu Mare
Romania's most compact wine massif, south of the Carpathians on the 45th parallel (like Bordeaux). Signature Feteasca Neagra in red: a dense, structured Romanian native with signature notes of ripe plum, blackberry, violet, leather, tobacco and sweet spice, round tannins — a national identity. Also Bordeaux blends (firm Cabernet Sauvignon, supple Merlot) and fresh Pinot Noir. Peppery Syrah booming.
The word of the wine: Local wine
Table wine, but with the origin indicated. It corresponds to a particular legislation: the freedom to use grape varieties is greater than for the AOC, but the quality criteria such as the approval tastings can sometimes be more demanding. The legislation is still evolving, but for the moment there are three levels: regional (e.g. Vin de Pays d'Oc), departmental and local (e.g. Côtes de Thongue).
