Tasting
Deep and noble purple in color, Negru de Purcari is a masterpiece of Moldovan winemaking.
On the nose, it reveals remarkable complexity, bursting with layers of blue and black fruits: juicy plums, blackcurrant, ripe blackberry, black cherry, mulberry, blueberry, sour cherry, and wild black raspberry. Floral notes of violet intertwine with subtle spices – black pepper, cloves – and delicate hints of leather and tobacco leaf, creating an elegant aromatic bouquet.
On the palate, this dry red wine impresses with its silky yet firm tannins. Rich and velvety in texture, it strikes a perfect balance between power and finesse. Structured, elegant, and bold, it offers a long, lingering finish with a refined, juicy mouth that makes every sip memorable.
Food pairing: an exquisite match with aged cheeses, meat dishes like pork steaks, juicy cooked veal cutlets and other grilled dishes.
Serving suggestion: Decant for 30 minutes before serving at 18–20°C to fully enjoy its depth and complexity.
