The event promotes the Moldovan people millenary culture of creation and consumption of quality wine and conscious and moderate wine consumption, through education. The festival has become one of the most popular events of its kind in the world. But those who attended the Wine Day in Moldova at least once are sure that there is nothing more outstanding out there.
