Sanziana Pinot Noir

Founded in 1998, Cramele Recas is a premium wine estate located on the far western fringes of the Romanian region of Transylvania/Banat, near Romania’s third largest city, Timisoara. In 1999, three families joined together and purchased the vineyards and winery of the local state co-operative, a large vineyard of 600 hectares which had farmed land in Recas since nationalisation in 1948. Previous to 1948 the land had belonged to German farmers, who came to the region in the 1700’s.
