XII

In the end of the twelfth century, the wine industry appears as the major economic occupation, being under the state protection in Valahia and Moldova. Later on, it is revealed that although these territories are favourable for vine growing, there are still many other regions, where is possible to produce a very special wine. Exactly one such place is the village Purcari, but in that period the vineyards were owned by the Monastery Afon-Zograf.

XVIII

The history of Purcari begins in the eighteenth century, when the French settlers from have taken in lease the lands of Monastery Zograf, promising to maintain the vineyards in a good condition and to pay a specific sum from the gained profits. Being French, they have supposed that the terroir is a special one, like the famous Bordeaux region. Only several decades later it was confirmed that Purcari vineyards are definitely located at the same latitude as the famous wine region in France and the soil rich of rubidium gives an intense purple colour, specific to Bordeaux wines. The owners started to produce red wines, which in a short period of time attained the fame of some exceptional wines with an intense and complex bouquet.
