After this session, the participants were taken to the magnificent vineyards of the estate of Cramele Recas, the Festival’s partner, which, with some 1,200 hectares, is Romania’s leading wine producer. They were able to appreciate the diversity of grape varieties used and the quality of the wines produced, which have earned this producer a place among the top 100 in the world in 2020 by ‘The Drinks Business’ magazine. The evening program started with a professional presentation of the vineyard and the wines by sommelier Narcis Georgiu, and the dinner was also honored by the presence of two of the owners of Recas Wineries, Ioan Georgiu and Gheorghe Iova.<\/p>\n\n
