Romantic wine tasting in Corcova

Romantic wine tasting - the pleasure of a precious ritual

Drinking a glass of wine is not a trivial fact, but a true multisensory experience. The incomparable atmosphere, the accompanying aperitifs, the wine tasting ritual, the stories and sophistication of the connoisseurs, the fine sound of the elegant glasses, the diffused light, the meticulous measurements and the attention given to each individual drop, all these details make a romantic wine tasting a memorable experience. And you will suddenly become the friend who gave them the most beautiful gift!

The romantic wine tasting takes place in the pavilion located in the middle of the vineyards in Corcova, at the Catleya winery, where one of the most beautiful experiences awaits your friends. It is an equally successful gift for wine connoisseurs, but also for those who set foot in a vineyard for the first time, it is a complete experience that must be "tasted" at least once in a lifetime.

Corcova has a rich past. In the height of the Belle Époque, Prince Anton Bibescu, Marcel Proust and their friends were tasting Corcova wines in Paris, while evoking the hair flowers from that mythical place. Bibescu, the multi-talented Francophile prince of Romanian origin, was the one who decided to expand his vineyard on the most beautiful and rich hills of Corcova. Helped by the French agronomist Sauget, he gave those wines their qualities and reputation.

Details for a romantic wine tasting:

• Visit of the winery in the presence of the owner of the winery and explanations about the winemaking process. Catleya wines are the result of a long process during which no compromise is made.

• Tasting of 3 types of wine at the customer's choice (after they are presented to them in advance). We specify that it will not be an easy choice!

• Plates with cold snacks (artisanal cheeses and charcuterie)

• A bottle of Freamat rose wine as a gift (a fresh wine with aromas of spring, lemon and red fruits. It has a pleasant acidity and an elegant taste)

The owners of the estate also strongly believe in authenticity, so they produce small quantities, with full control over quality and with an understanding of the personality of each grape variety they grow. Moreover, Catleya's founder and oenologist, Laurent Pfeffer, is personally involved in every stage of wine production and applies this philosophy, acquired in France, to everything he does in Romania, because attention to detail is vital for a successful result .
