The Fine Wine Guide 24/25: A New Edition of Moldova’s Fine Wines Guide Released
A new edition of the Fine Wine Guide 24/25, showcasing Moldova’s best wines, was unveiled on Wednesday in Chișinău. The wine selection was curated by Andrei Cibotaru, a wine taster at international competitions and the author of the specialized website finewine.md.
The Fine Wine Guide traditionally features a selection of 50 wines, divins, and other specialty beverages from the Republic of Moldova. Each winery is represented by a single wine. The selection is non-hierarchical, including white and red wines, dry and sweet, but always of high quality.
The guide is written in both Romanian and English.
For the first time, this edition includes a few simple snack recipes that pair well with wine.
It also provides descriptions of the four wine regions with protected geographical indications and the main grape varieties of the Republic of Moldova. Renowned British wine critic Robert Joseph contributes an editorial in the Fine Wine Guide, sharing his insights on the current global wine market and emerging trends.
This is the fifth consecutive year the Fine Wine Guide has been published. The institutional partners of the project are the National Office for Vine and Wine and the USAID Moldova “Rural Competitiveness and Resilience” Project. Lafarge Moldova is the general partner for the 2025 edition.
The Fine Wine Guide will be available in the Cărturești bookstore chain, wine shops in Chișinău, tourist guesthouses, and more. The digital version will be accessible on the vincuvin.shop website.
