Purcari
Negru is the bottle to start with for a structured red that rewards decanting. Freedom Blend combines Saperavi, Rara Neagra and Bastardo, native grapes of Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine, and was created to raise money for Ukrainian refugees. Rara Neagra is lighter and softer, good with roast chicken or mushrooms, while Feteasca Neagra is fuller and spicier. The rose, Pinot Grigio and Cuvee de Purcari Brut Rose sparkler are fresh everyday bottles, and the Icewine is a sweet dessert pour. Browse more Moldovan wine.
