The Codru wine region, located in Moldova, is renowned for its mild climate and rolling hills ideal for winemaking. Often referred to as the 'green lung' of Moldova, this region is home to about 60% of the country's vineyards, spread across fertile and well-drained soils. The moderate temperatures and balanced rainfall allow for a slow and full ripening of the grapes, ensuring an optimal concentration of flavors.
Codru is distinguished by its diverse wine production, ranging from fresh and floral whites to elegant and structured reds. Indigenous grape varieties such as Feteasca Alba and Rara Neagra sit alongside international varieties like Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot, offering a wide expression of styles.
The region is also famous for its impressive underground cellars, especially those of Cricova and Mileștii Mici, true labyrinths carved into limestone, providing ideal conditions for wine aging. By visiting Codru, wine enthusiasts not only discover unique flavors but also a rich wine tradition embedded in Moldovan history. It's an essential destination for those looking to add a touch of authenticity and exoticism to their cellar.
