Muscat runs through several of our brands: dry and medium sweet whites, a red and a liqueur wine. Here is how to tell them apart, and what the sources say about Muscat in the Codru region.
Muscat in Moldova
According to the National Office for Vine and Wine, aromatic varieties make up about a third of Moldova’s vineyards, and the Codru region, where our winery is, is known for its white grapes, Muscat Ottonel among them.

Each wine’s style is on its card and its page. In short:
- Dry: Artitude Muscat 2021, a dry white with PGI Codru. Muscat is also one of the four grapes in Artitude Quartet White 2017, with Chardonnay, Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc (honeyed pear, white flowers, lychee and citrus peel); the critic Jamie Goode gave the 2017 vintage 88 points out of 100.
