The Calusari range of wines from Cramele Recas are created to be fresh, fruity and extremely approachable - a taste of modern Romania. The grapes were lightly crushed and then further cooled to 8°C before a gentle pressing in state of the art vacuum presses. Free run juice is separated from the heavier pressing and decanted into stainless steel temperature controlled tanks for 48 to 72 hours, until perfectly clarified. The clear juice is transferred to stainless steel fermenters and inoculate with selected yeast to begin fermentation which takes 3 weeks at 10°C. The wine is kept on fine lees until bottling.
A deliciously fresh, dry white wine with crisp apple and pear on the nose. A light, juicy, vibrant palate with refreshing hints of grapefruit and pineapple. Finishing with a touch of citrusy acidity. Ideal served cool as an aperitif or try with chicken, grilled fish, light seafood dishes and vibrant salads.
Cramele Recas is a premium wine estate located on the far western fringes of the Romanian region of Transylvania/Banat. All the fruit is selected from their own estate and bottled in their state of the art winery. Their wines are modern and fruit driven and express perfectly the traditions and terroir of the region, where wine has been produced since the 1st century A.D.
