Chateau Purcari Sapiens Feteasca Neagra 2019

Cellar for 5-10 years. It can benefit from decanting.

The history of Chateau Purcari began in the 18th century when some French settlers occupied the land near the monastery of Afono-Zagraf and took charge of maintaining order in the vineyards by paying a tenth of the crop income. The French understood from the beginning that the terroir was special and began to produce excellent red wines with intense and complex flavors that soon became famous all over the world.

In 2003, after the planting of 250 hectares of vineyards and the updating of the cellar with the best equipment, the modern period in the history of Château Purcari began, which today exports its wines all over the world.

This wine is made from 100% Feteasca Neagra grapes harvested and selected by hand and then vinified with traditional methods and aged in new oak barrels. It has an intense and deep ruby red color with violet reflections. On the nose, the red fruit is predominant with bold aromas of black currant, blackberries, plums, and hints of sweet spices. In the mouth, it is juicy, full, and soft with strong tannins and notes of red fruits and vanilla. It has a long finish and a distinct personality. Try it with grilled meat dishes such as pork steaks or lamb chops.
