Romanian wine season is here

September in Romania is a magical time for wine lovers!

It is the peak of harvest season and we have plenty of places where grapes grow and are transformed into delicious wine!

• Dealu Mare – known for bold reds and scenic hills.

• Transylvania – cooler climate wines and medieval charm.

• Dobrogea – sun-kissed whites near the Black Sea.

• Moldova -  the largest wine-producing area in Romania.

Visitors are welcomed not just with glasses of Fetească Neagră or Grasă de Cotnari, but with stories passed down through generations about all the best practices for wine making and landscapes painted in autumn gold. Whether you're here to sip, stomp, or simply soak in the charm, Romania in September is a celebration of life itself in the wine region!

Some cool spots that we love to take our tourists to (and whole-heartedly recommend them to you too) are: Apogeum, Lacerta, Jidvei, Serve Ceptura, Avincis, Licorna, Panciu, Tohani, Liliac. 

In locations like this you can see the whole process: the vineyards full of fruit, the harvesting, you can even have a picnic oout in nature or a bike ride, afterwards see how the production process takes place and in the end feel the chill inside the cellars where the bottles are kept, all tour finished with a wine tasting session paired with a food platter, of course! 

No matter where you travel in Romania, you can always find one of these amazing wine regions with just one short drive and make sure you discover this tradition! Wine is woven into the fabric of Romanian tradition—from ancient Dacian roots to modern family-run estates, and visitors get to meet passionate winemakers who treat wine not as a product, but as a legacy.

Need more reasons? The rolling hills blanketed in vines, golden autumn light, and quiet village roads make Romania feel like a painting come to life. These places are perfect for photography, romantic getaways, or simply slowing down and breathing in the countryside, they offer tranquility, fresh air, and a slower rhythm - ideal for weekend retreats, wellness travel, or unplugging from the digital grind!
