It's now been a year since I started working with a Romanian company, Vrancea. I must say that the land, the environment and the people have conquered me. First of all, we are at the 45th parallel and therefore the climatic conditions related to the sunshine are identical to Bordeaux. From an agronomic point of view, the soil and the rainfall are absolutely suitable for the production of high quality grapes with full ripening that is not too early, but regular starting from the beginning of September for the first white grapes. The humidity is not too high in summer, so there is little fungal pressure especially during harvest, which is generally carried out in conditions of low rainfall and good ventilation. The grapes, generally grown in guyot, ripen gradually and reach analytical values of absolute resprct both in the white and in the red version.
