The cuvée of Chardonnay and Riesling combines creamy roundness with clear, tension-filled freshness.

Production of Sparkling Brut - Radacini

The grapes for Sparkling Brut - Radacini come from selected sites in the Codru wine-growing region in Moldova. This area benefits from a continental climate with warm days and cool nights. The temperature differences promote slow ripening of the grapes, preserving freshness and aromatic depth. Black earth soils provide a fertile basis, storing moisture and warmth equally and contributing to pronounced fruit intensity.

The harvest is carried out very selectively in order to process only perfectly ripe and aromatically concentrated grapes. Chardonnay and Riesling are brought into the cellar separately, where gentle pressing preserves the varietal character. A cool fermentation of the base wine emphasizes freshness, clarity, and the typical varietal fruit. The goal is a base wine with precise structure, fine interplay of acidity, and moderate alcohol content.

This sparkling wine is matured using the Charmat method. In this process, the second fermentation takes place in a pressure tank. The added tirage liqueur initiates a renewed fermentation, creating the finest perlage. Extended contact with fine lees in the tank gives the wine delicate yeast notes and a creamier mouthfeel without losing focus on the fresh fruit.

After fermentation, careful filtration follows, highlighting clarity and brilliance. The dosage determines the brut style that suits this sparkling wine’s profile: dry, elegant, with fine residual sweetness that supports the fruit and lends balance to the lively acidity. The use of modern cellar technology allows precise control of temperatures and ensures consistently high quality.

The style of the Radacini estate is clearly expressed in this sparkling wine: modern vinification, clean lines, fragrant aromatics, and focused freshness. The winery relies on a restrained, contemporary design for the sparkling wine bottle that visually underscores the elegant character of the contents. The result is a sparkling wine that delights both experienced experts and curious explorers.

In a more intimate setting, it accompanies a relaxed evening for two or a stylish start to the weekend.

The optimal serving temperature is between 5 and 7 degrees Celsius. Ideally, the bottle should be placed in the refrigerator in good time and left there for a few hours. Shortly before pouring, an ice-filled wine cooler is helpful to keep the temperature constant. A slender sparkling wine glass is ideal, as it allows the fine perlage to rise and at the same time concentrates the fragrant aromas.

For short-term storage, a cool, light-protected place with a constant temperature is suitable. Horizontal storage protects the cork and preserves the wine’s freshness. This sparkling wine already shows tremendous drinking pleasure in its youth, but over a few years it presents a stable, attractive style. In this way, it accompanies a wide variety of enjoyable moments, from a spontaneous aperitif to a carefully planned dinner.
