Villa Vinea “Diamond” Selection, 2019

… white wines from the best that Transylvania has to offer

Villa Vinèa, picturesquely situated on a gentle, south-southwest-facing hill, lies in the heart of the Târnava wine-growing region in Transylvania, directly above the small Târnava Mică river. The Târnava region is climatically one of the best white wine-growing regions in Romania. Villa Vinea's 60 hectares of vineyards, located 300-350 meters above sea level, are characterized by mineral-rich limestone, clay, and alluvial soils with high water-holding capacity and a pronounced, fertile humus content. The entire region benefits from a continental climate. Hot, dry summers with above-average sunshine and little rainfall alternate with cold, harsh winters. The long autumn with its cool nights contributes to the full, aromatic ripening of the grapes.
