Produced by Rovinex Winery, this wine is part of the Romanian Classic range, a collection showcasing both native and international grape varieties grown in Romanian vineyards, offering a clean, expressive and approachable drinking experience.

This wine is made exclusively from Merlot, a variety renowned for its velvety aromas and approachable character, making it easy to enjoy alongside a wide range of foods. Its deep ruby-red colour, with garnet hues, is the first indication of the wine's body and maturity. In the glass, it reveals elegant aromas of ripe red fruits, including sour cherries, black cherries and plums, complemented by subtle notes of spice, liquorice and a delicate hint of cocoa.

The texture is balanced and rounded, with fine, well-integrated tannins, making this wine enjoyable both for experienced wine drinkers and those who are just beginning to explore red wines. It is a dry wine, meaning it contains no significant residual sugar, with well-balanced acidity contributing to its freshness.

The label design, featuring dark tones with gold accents, conveys a refined and elegant character, making it suitable as a gift as well.

By choosing this wine, customers are opting for a versatile drink that is ideal for everyday meals as well as special occasions.

It is the perfect wine for those looking to turn an ordinary dinner into a moment of relaxation and enjoyment, without needing an extravagant budget. Whether enjoyed on a quiet evening at home or shared over a meal with friends, this wine creates the right atmosphere and adds something special to any occasion.

As a dry red wine, Romanian Classic Merlot pairs particularly well with red meats (beef, pork and lamb), as well as pasta with rich sauces, pizza, gourmet burgers, and platters of mature cheeses and quality cured meats. It is also an excellent choice for traditional Romanian dishes such as sarmale, tochitura and oven-roasted meats.

It is recommended to serve the wine at 16–18°C, allowing its aromas and flavours to fully express themselves. Aerating the wine for 15–30 minutes before serving can further enhance its aromatic character and refine the overall tasting experience.

The wine has received excellent reviews from consumers who appreciate its value for money and approachable character. In addition, the Romanian Classic range is recognised for its consistent quality and traditional style, making it a dependable choice for any occasion.
