Domeniile Sahateni is a family business established in 2003 which Aurelia Visinescu says that she would not have started without the help and support of her associate Steve Cacenco.
In love with nature, Aurelia Visinescu chose to study viticulture and enology, fascinated by the science behind Bacchus liquor.
The 82 ha of vineyards are close to the winery laying from the bottom of Istrita Hills, in Sahateni village, 125 m ASL, where whites and Pinot Noir are growing up to the top where altitude exceeds 450 m ASL in Naeni and Fiintesti villages. This is where the late-ripening reds are cultivated. The grape varieties we carefully grow here are indigenous ones:
Feteasca Neagra, Feteasca Alba, Tamaioasa Romaneasca, Feteasca Regala, and internationals such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Aurelia combines the best of modern and traditional winemaking methods to showcase distinctive varietal flavors.
