The Wine
The hottest name in Romania is Cramele Recas. Founded in 1998, this pioneering cellar leads the field in premium wines, with an up-to-the-minute winery and vineyards that were first planted in 1447. Englishman Philip Cox and his Romanian wife started the estate with scraggy vineyards and a rusty old winery, formerly state-owned, and brought them right up to scratch. They introduced winemaking expertise from Oz, Hartley Smithers, and Spain, Nora Iriate and have received rave reviews for wines that "over-deliver for their price point" (wineanorak). Leaders in Natural wine, they are experts with the Orange style. The handpicked, organic grapes were fermented on skins for 3 weeks, partly in amphorae, then lightly oak aged. Serve cellar cool.
"Apricot, cream, spice and citrus peel. Zippy acidity keeps things fresh and fun"
