✨ Technical Specifications
The Fautor 310 Altitudine Cabernet Sauvignon - Fetească Neagră originates from southern Moldova's IGP Valul lui Traian. Planted at altitudes around 310 meters near the Tigheci forest, the vineyards enjoy rich chernozem and sandy-clay soils along with warm sunny days moderated by Black Sea breezes. The wine combines the robust structure and dark-fruit intensity of international Cabernet Sauvignon with the spicy, plum-driven character and silky elegance of native Fetească Neagră. Vinified with modern temperature control and moderate oak aging, it yields a balanced, expressive red with rich local identity.
