The launch of a single malt whisky matured in Romanian wine casks is a world premiere. Romania has more than 2,000 years of history of in wine production and is one of the biggest wine producers in the world. Alexandrion Group, through Alexandrion Rhein 1892 Domains, its wine division, produces some of the best, internationally awarded wines in Romania. Its vineyards are located in the Dealu Mare (Big Hill) region, on the 45th parallel, similar to the Bordeaux region. In 2021 Hyperion Fetească Neagră 2016, a premium highly appreciated wine within the Alexandrion Rhein 1892 Domains portfolio was awarded the Double Gold medal in the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. Fetească Neagră is considered to be one of the best Romanian red wines, exhibiting spicy, smoky fruit flavours and good tannin structure. Alexandrion Group became, thus, one of the few companies in the world that use barrels from their own wine production facilities to age single malt whisky. This is a unique collaboration that will be further enhanced in the coming years.
