Jidvei Vinars VS is a Romanian brandy crafted from young wines with the characteristic acidity of the Jidvei vineyard. These wines are distilled and aged for at least three years in oak barrels, resulting in a harmonious, strong, and balanced spirit.
When served at room temperature, Jidvei Vinars VS reveals fine aromas of caramel, vanilla, and delicate exotic spices. The aging process in oak barrels imparts a unique nuance to the brandy, developing a harmonious and well-balanced profile. The velvety texture of this brandy complements its bouquet, adding an extra touch of elegance.
