True masterpiece of winemaking, with an unparalleled harmony of notes and a classy elegance that sets it apart from its peers. The soft nuances of the varietal are expertly balanced, with a mild cohesion of sweetness and acidity that is simply divine. The nose is redolent with the sweet, full suggestions of ripe plum and blackberry, at the same time the sensation is treated to a rich, soft structure that is both soothing and refined. The finale is long and satisfying, with a mild suggestion of oak that adds intensity and complexity. Overall, this is a truly remarkable wine that is sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
Chekurt
Mature wine with a rich, detailed profile, despite its relatively young age. The residual tanginess has largely diminished, leaving behind a elegant sweetness and a dominant structure of dried fruit, showcasing prune, cherry, and dried plum. The tail is long and smooth, with layers of cinnamon and vanilla.

Cricova Prestige Codru receives praise for its full-bodied richness, balanced structure, and complex notes of plum, oak, and dark fruits. While many appreciate its smooth texture and elegant blend of Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot, some find it unremarkable with muted aromas. Reviews highlight its value proposition and aging potential, though opinions vary on its memorability.
A deep garnet hue introduces the Cricova Prestige Codru, a wine that exemplifies the robust character of Moldova's Codru region. The bouquet unfolds with layers of blackcurrant, ripe plum, and a whisper of cedar, underscored by a subtle minerality. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious structure, where firm tannins and vibrant acidity frame flavors of dark cherry and a hint of clove. The finish is long and elegant, marked by a lingering note of dark chocolate. This wine stands as a testament to the potential of Codru's terroir, offering both depth and finesse.
