 Winery of “CRICOVA” is the founder of production of high-quality elite wines and is truly considered the pearl of Moldovan wine-making. The year of 1952. This is the year of foundation of the unique, majestic “CRICOVA” wine temple, known not only in Moldova, but widely abroad. While visiting in 1952 the abandoned underground adits, where sawed stone of shell-rock has been mined and used as a building material for civil-industrial sites, the ancestor of wine production, Mr. Piotr Ungureanu and others, discovered a microclimate, ideal for dry and sparkling wines storage. Here, a constant temperature of 10-14 C and high level of humidity of 95-98 % are kept all the year round. After the clearing of sawed stone waste and some insignificant works on deepening, communication and asphaltation, fine wine materials of 50 thousand dal. per year has been brought here, and, firstly in the Republic, in 1955 it has been started the production (in small installments of 50 -150 bottles per year) of sparkling wines by "CHAMPENOISE" method - with the second fermentation of wine in the bottle The winery is situated at a depth of 50-80 meters under the ground. Natural lime-stone mines, that stretched out as a 60-kilometres ribbon on the slopes of a shallowed river, turned into the operating workshops. But under the ground - there is an entire town! There are avenues, streets… there. Only their names are unusual: Feteasca Avenue, Caberne, Riesling, Aigote Streets. A prominent scientist - the wine-maker, Professor M. Gherasimov, after a visit to Cricova, wrote: "Cricova wine cellars in their capacities and wine storage facilities have no match in what I have seen before neither in our country, nor abroad".
