A bold expression of Romania’s signature red grape, fermented exclusively with wild, naturally occurring yeasts from the vineyard.

In the glass, it reveals a deep ruby hue and a vibrant bouquet of ripe plums and red currants. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet elegant, with supple, well-integrated tannins and a long, velvety finish. By avoiding oak maturation, this wine captures the purest essence of the Fetească Neagră variety — unmasked, authentic, and expressive.

Terroir & Winemaking
Sourced from a parcel at 200 meters altitude with soils of chernozem, sand, and gravel, the grapes were carefully selected and allowed to ferment spontaneously with their own wild yeasts. Every step was meticulously monitored to protect the natural process, resulting in a wine that reflects both the land and the variety in its truest form.

Food Pairing
Enjoyed on its own, it is also a perfect match for refined duck and pork dishes, lasagna, pasta with Bolognese sauce, or platters of semi-hard cheeses.

The wine

About the bottle

Budureasca vineyards covers an area of 280 ha, divided into 250 ha of vines which have been replanted in 2010-2011, and 30 ha of old vines. They are located at an altitude of 175-400 m where the climatic conditions favor the growing of black grape varieties.
We produce red wines from grape varieties such as: Cabernet Sauvignon, Fetească Neagră, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Shiraz. The red wines achieved from these grapes have bright colour with high intensity, they are velvety and very rich, with a great aging potential.

White wines, and especially the aromatic wines, those made from Tămâioasă Românească or Muscat Ottonel varieties are also favoured by the great competitive advantages due to natural conditions in Budureasca Vineyards: southern position, long period of sunshine and soils of chernozem and limestone.
We produce white wines from grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Fetească Regală, Tămâioasa Românească, Chardonnay, Fetească Albă, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Muscat Ottonel.
