Cuvée Valerius - Alutus Primus - Limited Edition
This new variety of vine, named ALUTUS, after the Latin name of the river Olt, was born from the cross between Băbeasca Neagră, an old Romanian variety and Georgian Saperavi, through the efforts and talent of researchers from Drăgășani, being cultivated exclusively on the Vila Domain Dobrușa – AVINCIS Winery, in the Drăgășani Vineyard.
After fermentation of the grapes picked in
autumn 2020, the wine was aged in French oak barrels for 15 months, and then
bottled in the first special reserve of 2200 bottles, under the trademark Cuvée
Valerius - Alutus Primus. The deep violet color, the wide aromatic palette, the
velvety touch on the palate and the flavor of the taste give personality to
this unique wine in Romania and in the world that completes the golden triad of
Romanian red wines – Alutus, Negru de Drăgășani, Fetească Neagră.
Serve at 17°C, with duck breast, aged
cheeses or risotto.
Type of wine: Dry
