From website:
Grape varieties: Fetească Neagra
Alcohol: 14 Vol%
750 ml
Temperature: 16° Celsius
The ruby color with purple accents indicates the elegance of this wine. Fruity nose with flavors of cherries, gingerbread and notes of black pepper. Due to the significant temperature difference between day and night, we discover a delicate, easy to drink wine, with notes of ripen plums and vanilla in the aftertaste.
Grape (Wikipedia):
Fetească Neagră (Romanian pronunciation: [feˈte̯askə ˈne̯aɡrə]); English: Black Maiden) is an old pre-phylloxeric variety of Romanian - Moldovan grape,[1] cultivated mainly in several areas in the Romanian regions of Moldavia, Muntenia, Oltenia, Banat, Northern Dobruja[2] and also in the Republic of Moldova.
These grapes produce dry, demi-dry or sweet wines, with an alcohol content of 12-14%,[3] a deep red colour with ruby shades, and a black currant flavour, which becomes richer and smoother with aging.
