Château Purcari
Purcari
A historic winery founded in 1827. Its “Black Bird” red wine was once served to the British royal family, and its lakeside castle offers accommodation and tastings.
Founded in 1827 by French immigrants, the winery's red wine Negru de Purcari won a gold medal at the Paris World Exhibition and was supplied to the British royal family. The lakeside castle-style building, underground cellars and vineyards form a classic French-style winery landscape, with tastings, a restaurant and guest rooms. Reservations are required. It's in the Ștefan Vodă district in the southeast, about 120 km from Chișinău, and is suitable for an overnight stay or a full-day trip.
