Rara Neagră Discovery Package – 6 Moldovan Red Wines, 20% Off

Rara Neagră (“black maiden”) is Moldova’s signature red grape, and it shows a different side of itself in every vineyard. This package lets you taste three of them side by side. You get two bottles of each wine, so you can open one now and keep the other to enjoy later or share.

What’s in the box

All three are dry, 100% Rara Neagră and 750 ml.

Meet the wines

TeWa Rara Neagra 2023: bright, lively, fresh
This is the lightest of the three, with a bright ruby colour. Expect red currant, cranberry, sour cherry and pomegranate on the nose, with blackberry and a touch of spice developing in the glass. The palate is juicy and fruit-driven, and the finish is fine, with a hint of licorice.
Serve at 14–16°C. Pairs with pizza, pâté, duck breast with cranberry compote, Pecorino and Manchego.

Fautor Aurore Rara Neagra 2022: elegant, polished, award-winning
This is the most structured wine of the set. It won a gold medal at the Mundus Vini Spring Tasting 2025. The nose shows clove and vanilla over sour cherry, plum, pomegranate and forest berries. The palate is full and silky, with smooth tannins and a long, spiced finish. It spent 6 months in French oak.
Pairs with beef steak, pizza, and mild or semi-hard cheeses. Decant first and serve at 16–18°C.

Crama Mircesti Rara Neagra 2023: round, savoury, ready to drink
This wine comes from a south-east-facing slope at 285 m altitude. The aromas are sour cherry, a little tobacco and a hint of sweet bell pepper. It spent 12 months in barrel, and the oak is well integrated, giving a smooth, gently spiced palate. It is drinking well now and should keep for at least 5 more years.
Decant first and serve at 16–18°C. Pairs with roast chicken, grilled skewers, beef steak and semi-hard cheeses.

Why this package

• One grape, three expressions. Compare a light, fresh style with an oak-aged, structured one and a rounder, savoury one.
• A good-value introduction to Moldovan wine. About €13.39 per bottle, and every wine is ranked 90 or above on our scale.
• Easy to share. Two of each wine means you can host a tasting evening, or give a friend half the box.
• Good with food. All three work with pizza, grilled meats and semi-hard cheeses.

A simple way to taste them

1. Start with the TeWa, which is the lightest.
2. Move to the Fautor Aurore and notice the extra structure from the oak.
