The name is a common Moldovan girl's name meaning \"violet\", and the grape earns it: the floral lift hits you the moment it goes into the glass. This is an unapologetically aromatic variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThink white flowers, citrus, muscat and lychee. It is barely planted outside Moldova, so it offers a character you will not find in the international varieties, and because it holds its acidity well it has become a favourite base for sparkling wine in recent years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRadacini Wines\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadacini Wines was founded in 1998. \"Rădăcini\" is Romanian for \"roots\", and the name is the whole philosophy: this is a producer that builds its range around local grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate farms roughly 1,000 hectares and uses 100% estate-grown fruit. Apart from part of the entry range, the harvest is done by hand and only the first-press juice is used. The winery was born out of a collaboration with Umberto Menini, an Italian winemaker and consultant with 50 years in the trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadacini was named Moldova Best Winery of the Year 2020 by the Moldovan government and Vine and Wine, the national wine promotion body. In July 2021 it became the first and still only Moldovan winery certified to both the BRC and IFS international food standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAwards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSakura Awards 2026: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMundus Vini 2025: Gold \u0026amp; Best Sparkling Moldova\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBerlin Wine Trophy 2025: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrankfurt International Trophy 2025: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsia Wine Trophy 2025: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChallenge International du Vin 2025: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAWC Vienna 2025: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose this wine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix international gold medals in 2025 alone, plus \"Best Sparkling Moldova\" at Mundus Vini, and another gold at the 2026 Sakura Awards. Very few sparkling wines at this price attract that much attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is made by the Asti method, the fresh fruit and floral character of the grape land in your glass more or less intact. It works as an aperitif, and it keeps working right through a meal, from Japanese food to Southeast Asian. If you have never met Viorica, this is the bottle to start with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraw yellow with green tints.

Citrus blossom and white flowers, acacia, orchard fruit (white peach, pear, melon), lychee and muscat. Overflowing with freshness and aromatic lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium body. Bright citrus flavours carried by crisp, clean-cut acidity, beautifully balanced against generous fruit. The fine bubbles tighten everything up and the finish is clean and refreshing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart with it as an aperitif. Salads, sauteed seafood, carpaccio, tempura and fresh goat cheese all work. Viorica's floral side also handles spicy Asian food well: Thai green curry, fresh spring rolls, herb-heavy salads. Among Japanese dishes, try it with white fish sashimi, sushi, or simply as the glass before a bowl of soba.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eService\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService temperature: 5~7°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecanting: not needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Ștefan Vodă\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViticultural region: Ștefan Vodă\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVillage: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVineyard: estate-owned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAverage vine age: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltitude: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAverage annual temperature: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAverage annual rainfall: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape grower: Radacini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngredients: grapes 100%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Radacini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction place: Radacini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMethod: Asti method (the must is fermented only once; the wine is chilled and the carbon dioxide dissolves naturally in a pressurised tank)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermentation vessel: stainless steel tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermentation period: up to 25 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermentation temperature: low ([作成中])\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalolactic conversion: no\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSur lie: no\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOak maturation: none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottling place: Radacini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottling date: listed on the package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSize \u0026amp; Weight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle item dimensions (mm): 310 x 85\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle item weight (g): 1450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase size: 12 bottles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase dimensions (mm): 380 x 320 x 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase weight (g): 18000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eImport information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImporter: Agri Corporation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImport method: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImport route: Radacini ⇨ Agri Corporation ⇨ Daniel's Wine Club\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuality control method during transportation: [作成中]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeller: Daniel's Wine Club\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage place: Daniel's Wine Club\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage temperature: 16~18°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGifts, wrapping, noshi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find gift boxes, along with packaging and noshi (traditional Japanese ceremonial wrapping) options, on the \"\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/danielswine.club\/en\/collections\/accessories-and-gifts\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAccessories and Gifts\u003c\/a\u003e\" page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’d like to add a personal touch to your gift, we can also include a card or message in the package.
