Romanian Local Varieties | white, pink, and red | five-bottle bundle | 10% OFF + Member Discount

If you've explored international grape varieties in STEP 1, taking a step further into the realm of Romanian indigenous varieties allows you to encounter a different world.

The term "indigenous varieties" refers to grape varieties grown in a specific region, representing the flagship grapes of that country. These grapes are not as widely cultivated in other countries, offering the opportunity to experience wines that are distinctive and full of character.

Choosing grape varieties that may seem unfamiliar at first can be challenging, but in Daniel's Wine Club, we carefully select meaningful and enticing indigenous varieties.
