Fetească Neagră, the head wine of the CALOIAN series, has immediately gained lots of fans. It reminds the erotic and post-modern surprise of the lady who, wearing a red flamenco dress, descends majestically the marble steps leading to the black-an-white ball room. A wine everybody speaks about, yet nobody can ignore – a must to remember! Though easily drinkable, it’s not a facile wine, as its friendly roundness, dominated by dried plums, black cherries and sour-cherries, is but a “context” for the truffle-and-cocoa zest, somehow bemused by a drop of fresh blood dipped in the seducing wooden flavours.
