Visit Chateau Purcari Winery and Marta & Maria Monastery
Explore spiritual tranquility at Marta & Maria Monastery, then head to Chateau Purcari for a journey through winemaking history, tasting exquisite wines, ending with a traditional Moldovan lunch.
Experience Details
We have the opportunity to visit the "Martha and Mary" Monastery, located near the village of Hagimus. It is a center of pilgrimage and reflection, where the monastery's churches house holy relics and remains, providing a space of spiritual peace and tranquility.
In 2003, with the replanting of 250 hectares of vineyards and equipping the winery with the most advanced equipment, the modern era in the history of Château Purcari began, which was founded in 1827. Purcari wines started to be exported to over 25 countries around the world, becoming the calling card of the Republic of Moldova abroad.
The tour to the "Purcari Winery" includes a visit to the grape processing section, the wine storage section, and the bottling section. Additionally, we visit the historical part – the cellars where the wine matures in barrels, the maturation of wine in bottles, the Purcari wine collection, and a tour of the tourist complex.
At the end we'll organize a traditional lunch in Carahasani village.
