Lacerta Cuvee IX Dry Red Wine 

Cuvee IX is a special red blend that captivates at first sight with its intense hue, only to then seductively delight the palate with rich notes of **forest fruits**, **chocolate**, and **coffee**. The wine is young and eager to express its fresh personality and showcase its finely candied accents. The alcohol is beautifully integrated, the taste is full, and the finish is fruity, with subtle influences reminiscent of the pleasant aroma of coffee liqueur, borrowed during maturation in barrique.

Culinary recommendations

It is recommended to enjoy it at 17-19°C, alongside strongly flavored cheeses or dark chocolate desserts.

About the producer

South of the Carpathian Mountains, along the 45th parallel, the famous wine parallel where Piedmont and Bordeaux are also located, there is a place where spring is quite dry, and autumn is sunny and long. It's a place where the fertile and clean land is recognized by the small lizards that run everywhere.

If you stop in Dealu Mare to admire the hills teeming with vineyards and enjoy the crisp air, you can always find living proof that these lands are ideal for grapes. In 2011, the lizards lent their Latin name to the multi-award-winning wines from these places: LacertA.

At the center of the LacertA estate stands Dorobantu Manor, the work of architect Ion Mincu. Built in 1901 and renovated in 2005 according to original plans,
this example of Neo-Romanian architecture overlooks the surrounding hills, brimming with vineyards.
The welcoming grandeur of the manor invites guests to taste the noble wine, as well as to admire from above one of the most beautiful wine estates. Any visit becomes a memorable experience, as the surrounding hills, rich in vineyards, offer a visual delight. The 82 hectares of vineyard producing gold-medal-winning wine at numerous international competitions, the manor's architecture, and the 7000 years of wine history in this privileged area make LacertA an experience that must be felt. And, as proof of the perfect symbiosis between mineral, plant, and animal life, lizards quickly make their way across the brown soil, ideal for wine, and then settle and rest in sunlit areas.
