Caii de la Letea

Via Viticola winery is located in the oldest vineyard of Dobrogea, near the hills of Sarica and Niculițel. Following the rebranding, the winery took the name of the most famous range of wines it produces: Caii de la Letea.

The "Caii de la Letea" wine was born in the oldest vineyard of Dobrogea, near the hills of Sarica and Niculițel, where the cultivation of the vine has millenary roots.

Even if the traditional methods of viticulture and grape selection have been preserved, the new winemaking technologies are masterfully handled by the winery's oenologists in order to highlight the specific imprint of the terroirs that the winery cares for in the Dobrogea area.

One of the emblematic varieties of the vineyard is the Aligote, a variety that we grew with passion and skill, and today it continues to reward us with a series of awards at renowned international competitions.
