LISTEN ON:

Catalin Paduraru is CEO of the International Wine Competition Bucharest / Vinarium, editor, wine writer and founder of the Romanian wine retail.
The Wines of Romania podcast invites to a discussion about the needs of Romanian wine - from institutions to training young people and from recovering the wine history to the need for centralized communication. 🍷

Interview highlights:
- We have to prove that the grapevine came to the territory of Romania 7,000 years ago, from Caucasus region, by land, not from Greece, 2,000 years ago,
- In Germany and Poland, alcohol-free wine has a double-digit market share,
- We need education, but with a speech adapted to young people,
- We must bring the young people close to the vineyard, to the vine, peoples were born around the vine,
- Feteasca neagra has no way of missing the role of leader of local grape varieties.

🎙️ The Wines of Romania podcast is inspired by the Deschidem Vinul Romanesc / We Open the Romanian Wine program, a national program developed by Carrefour Romania, dedicated equally to consumers and wine producers in Romania.
