Romania has been making wine for thousands of years, and the bottles rarely leave the country, which makes a tasting worth your evening. Below are the best Romanian wine tastings in Bucharest: how many wines you try, whether food is included, the setting, and the price per person.
Wine tasting in Bucharest at Abel’s Wine Bar, sampling five Romanian wines with a cheese-and-meat platter and Old Town atmosphere.
“The host was very friendly and he provided very good info about the Romanian wines. The cheese&meats platter is very good, it also comes with an amazing chilli jam.”
Bucharest at Corks: taste 5 Romanian wines, including Busuioacă de Bohotin rosé, with snacks and expert guidance in 1.5 hours.
“Little bit alarmed when we arrived and were told they don’t do wine tasting, but that was just a small misunderstanding! Wines were great and the whole experience was definitely worthwhile”
Tour Peleș and Cantacuzino castles with Sinaia Monastery and a guided wine tasting in a small-group day trip from Bucharest.

“My tour is great! Andrei was a great driver, we chat during the trip. Booked for two, but only myself was going in the trip. Great experience for a first timer in Bucharest. It was awkward at the begining, but he is good to bring situation as like i am talking to my friend during the trip.”
Private Bucharest wine tasting at Abel’s Wine Bar: 5 Romanian wines with cheese and meat, guided in English for $64.
“Darrio was very knowledgeable about all the wine that we had. He was super friendly and definitely up to talk more about details and wine themselves. The cheese and meat platter was way bigger than we expected. We had an amazing time! Definitely recommend if you’re a wine fanatic ❤️”
Bucharest wine day trip to LacertA and Budureasca: two tastings of 10+ wines, snacks, hill views, and an English sommelier.
“the guide did not manage time between vineyards well, actual wine tasting was shorter than the sommelier history on the vineyard. Because of this poor management lunch was skipped and the guide had a verbal disagreement with the second vineyard sommelier, yet the second vineyard had better time management between the history and the wine tasting”
Private Bucharest tour with Dimitrie Gusti Village Museum, a handmade craft stop, and a Dealu Mare wine tasting with cheese & charcuterie.
“Michael was amazing with his knowledge of the area and was great with our group. He customized our visit to help our gentle walkers see as much as possible”
Small-group Bucharest day trip to Unirea Salt Mine, Casa Seciu lunch and winery stop, and Snagov Monastery’s Dracula’s Grave.
“Laura was just the best guide and we had a very enjoyable day away from the crowds. Salt mines were interesting and casual, lunch was fantastic and the monastery one of the highlights on the visit to Romania. Laura gave great details and history, was flexible on timing for our small group (5 ppl).”
A cozy 2-hour Bucharest wine and food pairing with 5 Romanian wines and a traditional platter, taught in English or Romanian.
“I paid for the wine and food pairing but only received some cubes of cheese with crackers and no other food to pair with the wines. I didn't receive anything with the first wine so asked the sommelier about the pairings and he said he would bring the snacks later so they would last for all of the wines. As he brought the second wine he brought the cheese and crackers. That was the only food I received, not what was advertised when I booked it. I believe I got the experience that I would have received if I'd just booked the wine tasting rather than the food pairing experience…”
Sip eight Romanian wines at Abel’s Wine Bar in Bucharest, paired with cheese, charcuterie, and a small tuică taste. English tour.
“Great selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff, great treats with the wine. What else you could ask for? It’s probably the best wine bar in the old town.”

“The best tour we did whilst in Bucharest. Ionut our guide for the day was great. The salt mine was incredible, it was huge. The winery was on the side of a beautiful valley with great views and good wine. The muddy volcanoes were fun to see, with a moon like terrain. Would highly recommend.”

“We spent an incredible day touring the Dealu Mare wine region with guide Mihai Vateselu. Great personality, lots of fun, and very knowledgeable about the area (and Bucharest/Romania in general). Dealu Mare is the best red wine-producing area in Romania and Mihai's selection of wineries to visit highlighted the quality, tragic history, beauty, and growing potential of the area. This is a tour not to be missed with Mihai!!”

Tour Bucharest’s Village Museum, handmade crafts, and a guided Romanian wine tasting with 3 local wines plus cheese and charcuterie.
“C’était très sympathique et instructif. Le guide prends la peine de nous demander et de bien communiquer lors de la prise en charge et si on veut être déposée ailleurs à la fin. Un activité qui pour moi en valait la peine car il y a eu beaucoup de partage et on prenait bien le temps . Je recommande”
