CrameRomania.ro is the only bilingual online database of Romanian wineries. It is a non-profit project created and developed out of passion for wine and visits to wineries.
Starting with 2013 we’ve visited over 65 wineries in Romania, getting to know this wonderful land and its people and we’ve made maps of wine-growing zones to help people interested in knowing these areas.
Our objective is to develop wine tourism and to expand the curiosity and appreciation of those who travel for Romanian wines, wineries and vineyards.
Furthermore, in 2015 we started developing the Revino.ro Project, a website which offers wine lovers and those who wish to consume it, all the information they need to discover the wine route and to visit the wineries. Thus, those who are interested can find information about wine tourism and about wines they can drink at every occasion.
In 2016, I organized the first edition of “ReVino – Discover Wines from Romania”, Bucharest Wine Fair, where wine passionate and experts can taste premium wines and discover how to visit a winery directly from the wineries representatives.
