| Far beyond the bonds of the republic is known, appreciated and loved
the production of the State Enterprise Quality Wines Industrial Complex
"MILESTII MICI", the oldest storehouse of the "divine liquid". Here the
Wines are stored, indeed the wonder of MILESTII MICI. Having its
particular glamour, this natural wine deposit – the largest
of the world – appreciated in the lime galleries at a depth
of 40-85 meters in the seventies of the last century. DESCRIPTION:
Over 50 km of the underground galleries are transformed into wine
warehouses in the Milestii Mici Village (almost 20 km south Chisinau).
Now, as many years ago, the underground kingdom still excites the
visitors. The lucky guests who get into it have the rare opportunity to
travel the darkened avenues and streets with rows and niches, where
precious bottles are carefully laid down, where barrels are placed.
Covered with the attributes of antiquity – spider web and
grey dust – they attract all looks, just like a magnet. In
order to make the time travel even more exciting, all those who wish
are given the map of the wine depository, sealed with wax. The same map
is present on the labels.
The constant annual temperature of +12 ... +14 C0 and the high moisture
level offers favourable conditions to store the high quality wine.
The wine collection consists of over 2 million bottles. The grapes
collected on the vineyards around Milestii Mici village are of special
quality. The wine made out of these grapes has a rich and noble taste,
which is stored then in the stone subways for many years. Cabernet",
"Cahor", "Muscat" or "Aligote" – each of them bears the mark
of the creator, his soul, energy and inspiration, though all of them
are perceived as a part of the universal history of winemaking, as a
part of the Moldovan culture. TOUR SERVICES: - Transportation
