Negru de Purcari 2016 is a premium Moldovan blend, known as one of the region’s most prestigious wines. Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, Saperavi, and Rară Neagră, these varieties combine to create a deep, complex, and structured wine. The aromatic profile reveals plum, blackberry, fig, and chocolate, alongside subtle notes of vanilla, spices, and oak acquired during barrel aging. On the palate, it is full-bodied, velvety, and rich, with ripe tannins and a long, elegant finish. Thanks to its aging potential, this wine evolves over the years and is an excellent choice for red meat, game, and aged cheeses.
