Moldova

Few wine regions carry a story as dramatic as Moldova's: entire towns of tunnels carved into limestone, like Cricova and Mileștii Mici, hold some of the largest cellars in Europe. Vinopanorama lists more than 60 estates and cellars across the country, from producers of the native Rară Neagră and Fetească grapes to modern wineries reviving old traditions. Plan a visit and you can walk galleries lined with bottles before sitting down for a tasting straight from the barrel.
