Recipe: Issa Rosé Wine

I am delighted to propose a wine from a winery near Cluj, more precisely from Turda. The vineyards of La Salina winery are right on the hills above the Turda Salt Mine. I visited them last autumn during the harvest. They also built a restaurant with a guesthouse on the hill, so there's plenty to do in the area: visit the salt mine, taste the wines and traditional Turda food (especially the famous Turda roast!), take long walks (or runs, you need them after Turda roast 😉 ) on the surrounding hills and through the Turda Gorge.

The winery's vineyards are young, yet their wines were already pleasant and fresh last year when they officially opened the winery. I was very pleased to learn that good wine can be made in our area.

The name Issa comes from Potaissa, the ancient name of Turda.

  1. Issa Rose Pinot Noir 2015 - a wine with a pleasant color, quite standard (salmon); light tannins and pleasant acidity; aromas of strawberries, wild strawberries and peaches; a fresh and crisp wine like a spring breeze; best served well chilled (10-12°C) on warm days, alongside bruschetta with tomatoes or salmon.
