Introduction

When it comes to Moldovan wine, few names shine brighter than Purcari Winery. With roots tracing back to 1827 and a legacy that has earned praise from European royalty and modern wine critics alike, Purcari is more than just a winery—it’s a symbol of excellence, tradition, and innovation.

At Vinul Wines, we are thrilled to bring you a curated selection of Purcari wines, each bottle a testament to Moldova’s winemaking heritage and the mastery of one of its finest producers.

A Royal Legacy Since 1827

Purcari is not only one of the oldest wineries in Moldova—it was the first in the region to be officially recognized by a royal charter. In the 19th century, Purcari’s wines began winning gold medals at international competitions, including the famed Paris World Expo in 1878, where judges mistook their Negru de Purcari for a French Bordeaux.

Even Queen Victoria was a fan, and today, Purcari wines continue to be served at high-profile events across Europe and beyond.

Wines that Tell a Story

Purcari’s vineyards lie near the Dniester River, in a microclimate with warm days and cool nights—ideal conditions for growing premium grapes. The winery blends French winemaking traditions with local expertise to craft wines that are rich in flavor, elegant in structure, and unmistakably Moldovan.

Signature wines include:

• Negru de Purcari – A powerful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Saperavi, and Rara Neagră. Aged in oak barrels, it's a bold red with notes of dried plums, spices, and chocolate.

• Alb de Purcari – A refreshing white blend with floral aromas, tropical fruit notes, and a smooth finish.

• Rosé de Purcari – Elegant and refined, with delicate red berry flavors and a crisp acidity that makes it a perfect summer wine.

Award-Winning Excellence

Purcari wines consistently receive top honors at international wine competitions, including Decanter World Wine Awards, Mundus Vini, and International Wine & Spirit Competition. Their commitment to quality, sustainability, and innovation keeps them at the forefront of Eastern European winemaking.
