With departures in September and October, Moldova presents itself as a destination with history, traditions and landscapes to discover.
A getaway featuring Orthodox monasteries, brutalist architecture, remarkable wineries (100 km of underground passages where world leaders such as V. Putin and J. Kerry have held parties) and Transnistria, that “non-existent country” frozen in the old Soviet era.
When we think of the great wine destinations, we think of Tuscany, Bordeaux or La Rioja. However, in the easternmost part of Europe, a country holds the record of possessing the largest underground wineries in the world.
Moldova, a destination where wine is more than an industry: it runs through its history, culture and hospitality.
Imagine a territory in the heart of Europe that functions as a country, with its own currency, flag and government, yet is not recognised by any international body.
Welcome to Transnistria, one of Eastern Europe’s least-known regions.
