Dry red wine

Dry red wine: A classic in every sip

Dry red wine is the benchmark of winemaking and the choice of those who appreciate the primal character of a drink. Unlike semi-sweet wines, the sugar here has fermented almost entirely into alcohol (according to standards, its content does not exceed 4 grams per liter). This allows the structure of the grape to fully unfold, revealing the true terroir and the skill of the winemaker without unnecessary sweetness.

Features and character of dry red wines Dry red wines are valued for their "honesty." It is in this category that tannins—the substances that give wine a pleasant astringency and create a sense of body—are most vividly expressed.

• Gastronomy: This is the perfect partner for serious food. Steaks, game, aged cheeses, and spicy dishes reveal themselves in a completely different way when paired with a glass of good dry wine.

• Varietal diversity: In this category, varieties such as the powerful Cabernet Sauvignon, velvety Merlot, spicy Syrah (Shiraz), and, of course, the pride of our region—Fetească Neagră—shine.

• Benefits: It is believed that dry red wine contains the maximum concentration of resveratrol and other antioxidants that have a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system.

How to serve and taste properly? To let a dry red wine perform at 100%, remember a couple of rules:

• Temperature: The optimum is 16–18°C. Wine that is too warm will be excessively alcoholic, while wine that is too cold will hide its aroma.

• Decanting: Young, tannic wines need to "breathe." Let the wine stand in a glass or decanter for 20–30 minutes—this will soften the taste and open up the bouquet.
