Mircești Winery is located in the village with the same name in Ungheni district. Although it has only been around for a few years, the winery has become an emblem of small wineries in Moldova, thanks to the modern approach to wine production. This region, especially the village of Mircești, has a historical importance and has a great terroir for wines with a strong character. Therefore, Arcadie Foșnea, the owner of the winery, laid the foundations of a winery and began the renovation of the neighboring mansion, keeping its specific architectural features.
Recently, Mircești Winery was equipped with a meteorological data generation station, and the employees apply modern strategies for cutting vines and detect diseases, using drones. Mircești Winery is also the host of experiments and wine demonstrations within the project "The best grapes", which aims to identify optimal practices for growing grapes in the national context.
The 15 ha are located on slopes with up to 30 ° inclination, with southern, eastern and northern exposure, at an altitude of 340 meters, being one of the highest vineyards in Moldova. According to the winemaker, this micro-zone offers very favorable conditions for growing quality grapes: not very rich soil, 3,200 hours of sunshine per year, similar to southern areas, still high acidity, specific to the north and high humidity with over 650 mm of annual rainfall.
The maximum production capacity of the winery is 50,000 bottles of wine per year, from valuable local and European varieties. The wines will be from the premium category, which will focus on terroir.
