Rara Neagra de Purcari 2021

Kpo says: The name is RARE already! Best seller! Elegant!

Rara Neagră is a rare local grape mostly exclusively planted in Moldova and Romania (also known as Băbească Neagră). An explosion of grace and elegance embodied in wine!

The ruby color, with a pomegranate accent is accompanied by a complex aroma with accents of chocolate and plum. The full taste, velvety with hints of dried fruits and vanilla comes smoothly into a fine oak aftertaste. Rara Neagră de Purcari is an explosion of grace and elegance embodied in wine, a perfect balance of power and elegance. Made from grapes harvested and selected by hand, produced using traditional methods.

The only known planting of it outside of Romania/Moldova is in up state New York in the US.
