Wine Tour with Tasting at the Murfatlar Winery and Lunch at the Mitroi Estates, with Pickup from the Hotel
About This Tour
Let yourself be swept away on a sensory journey along the Dobruja Wine Route, where the hills—bathed in sunshine for over three hundred days a year and caressed by the Black Sea breeze—create a terroir unique in Europe. This half-day experience was designed for lovers of authentic flavors who wish to discover both the region’s time-honored traditions and the fresh spirit of its new family-run wineries. Your first stop takes you to the legendary Murfatlar Winery, a leading name in Romanian viticulture, renowned for its noble grape varieties and rich aromas. For over an hour, you’ll go behind the scenes of wine production, uncover the secrets of slow aging, and take part in a guided tasting where each glass tells the story of Dobrogea’s limestone soil—from the fresh, floral notes of the white wines to the velvety body of the reds.
The journey continues just a few minutes away, in Valu lui Traian, where the Domeniile Mitroi Winery opens its doors—a project born in 2008 from the passion of a family in love with nature and the art of winemaking. Here you’ll discover another side of the Murfatlar vineyard: a boutique winery where modern technology blends with the care given to every hand-picked grape. Your hosts will guide you through the production facilities, warmly sharing their vision of wines that are pure, expressive, and full of character.
The highlight of your visit to Domeniile Mitroi is the tasting session accompanied by a delicious lunch, prepared to bring out the flavors in your glass. For nearly two hours, you’ll leisurely enjoy the pairing of delicious dishes with the winery’s wines in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. With your heart filled with beautiful stories and the authentic flavors of Dobrogea, you’ll return comfortably to your hotel, with the entire afternoon still ahead of you to relax by the sea.
