The story
German roots
Royal supplier
Modern revival
Back in the late 1800s, German winemakers realized the cool climate here was actually perfect for making bubbly. The Rhein family set up shop in Azuga, supplying the Royal Court with sparkle long before it was cool. While mass production took over later, modern producers are reclaiming that original glory, focusing on traditional fermentation techniques that make every bottle feel like a handcrafted masterpiece.

Why it's special
Unique blends
Traditional method
Great value
What makes this fizz stand out is the daring mix of international stars like Chardonnay with local legends like Fetească Regală. You get the classic toasty notes of the traditional method combined with a floral, fruity kick that is uniquely local. Plus, you get all that complex, double-fermented goodness for a fraction of what you would pay for a label that speaks French.

Moldavia
This eastern powerhouse is basically the engine room of Romanian viticulture, producing a third of the country's juice. Think rolling hills, ancient cellars, and a reputation for dessert wines that once wooed European royalty.

Forget cold Dracula stereotypes, down here, things get steamy. Muntenia serves up a serious dose of sunshine and attitude, acting as the engine room for the country's most velvety and robust red wines.
