Description

Cricova Winery is situated at a depth of 60-80 meters, representing a real underground city. The Moldavian cellars where Vladimir Putin keeps his wine are so big you need to drive through them. You will also find Herman Goering’s private collection, taken by the Red Army from Berlin in 1945. Considered to be the pearl of Moldovan winemaking, Cricova is the founder of production of high-quality elite wines.

Milestii Mici Winery - is the largest underground cave network with the biggest collection of wine in the world.
"Golden Collection" - the world largest collection of bottles with vine, as evidenced by the fact that there are stored the best valuable wines! Visitors have the unique opportunity to walk along the cool, dark galleries & avenues where big barrels are placed. The wine bottles, covered with noble dust are expecting for the day to be enjoyed.

So let's go and explore the symbols of Moldovan winemaking!
