Overview

Dobrogea is the country's driest, sunniest wine country — a limestone plateau between the Danube and the Black Sea, where Murfatlar has been making sweet Chardonnay and Pinot Gris since antiquity.

The light here is Mediterranean; the soils are pale; the wines are full of sun. Pair a weekend with the Greek ruins of Histria and a swim at Vama Veche.
