“Be our Guest” you have the opportunity to visit the most beautiful and famous winery Cricova from Europe. The biggest cellars in the whole world are, with no doubt, situated in Cricova, Moldova, only a few kilometers north of Chisinau. Here, underground lies a real city of wine – with wide streets, warehouses, tasting-rooms and so on. In the underground streets like “Cabernet”, “Feteasca”, “Pinot”, buses of tourists find their way to the cellars.
In Moldova only Cricova cellars employ the strict classic French technology of champagne wine production. So Cricova is a highlight of any visit to Moldova.
Cricova – the famous underground wine city
Being placed under the town Cricova, the cellars form a true underground city with avenues, streets, and broadways. Only their names seem to be so old: Cabernet, Feteasca, Riesling, Aligote, Sauvignon … Every street’s name corresponds to the wine brand preserved right there, in the adjacent niches.

11 months agoThe smell. The air. The lighting. The wine... Excellent 👌 Great experience overall. Good for 2 people or more, kids included. The staff was kind and talkative. The wine tasting was well prepared in a separate room.

3 months agoI believe this in one of the major sights of Chisinau. It is fun to ride through the tunnels in a little car. The video that was shown was nice. Yet the most amazing about the tour was Michael the tour guide. He makes people fall in love with Moldovan wines. And if they already are he reminds them that they can take 4 litres away with them on international flights. I loved the way he kept the group together. I believe I learned a lot from his skills. And he is charming like Moldovan wine. Cricova can be happy to have him.

3 months agoI recently had the opportunity to visit Cricova winery in Moldova and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The tour of the underground cellars was impressive, and the guide was knowledgeable and passionate about the wines. The highlight of the visit was the tasting of their sparkling wines, which were some of the best I've ever had. The balance of sweetness and acidity was perfect, and the flavors were complex and delicious. I also purchased a few bottles of their still wines to take home, which were also of excellent quality. Overall, I highly recommend a visit to Cricova to anyone who is a wine lover, you won't be disappointed.

3 weeks agoQuite impressive and atmospheric place. 100km of wine caves. Access only with tour guide and by little train inside. Quite better to book an appointment before. In case you didn’t it is possible to Take part with current group. Tour guides every 30-60 minutes. We Took big trip with tasting 6pcs of wine(they call it “professional tour”😅, and that’s was great. Price was 900 MDL/per one person. It is also acceptable to visit wine factory with little dog,except tasting room, if your pet is calm and not aggressive to other people. Strongly recommend to visit that place.
